I'll be heading up to fish Silver lake, Caples lake, Red Lake, and possibly caples creek. Any advice on what patterns to try up there around mid July? I have grown up bait fishing these lakes and have yet to try fly fishing them. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks a bunch!

A rust color Wiggle nymph has worked well in all of those lakes for me. don't leave home without ants also. When in doubt fish a Prince nymph.

I'd try terrestrials like ants, beetles, and grasshoppers and Parachute Adams size 14-18 because they look like a lot of winged insects found in those parts. If you hit Silver Lake, bring an extra spinning rod, nightcrawlers and bobbers incase flies don't work, because nothing works better between 5 and 6PM and this method is good for a couple of fish.
