I had a very productive day, although with some challenges. I wanted shoot video of some of the quality lakes in Grant County. By that I mean those that have special regulations that restrict anglers to the use of single barbless hooks and no bait. They also have limits of one fish per day or even just catch and release. With these regulations in place these lakes have abundant populations of bigger trout. I started at Rocky Ford Creek. The challenge was the wind. I managed to find some shelter, but it isn’t easy to shoot video in windy conditions. I spent quite a bit of time here, hiking down the stream to show good places to fish. My next stop was at Lake Lenore, which is known to produce Lahontan cutthroat to 30 inches and has been fishing very well the past couple of seasons. I ended the day at Dry Falls Lake. I spoke with someone with the State Park when I arrived, and she said anglers were getting trout of 18 to 20 inches fishing with chironomids below indicators. This is a popular fly fishing lake, and I even saw a license plate from California in the parking area.
