I was camped just below you on the second lake. My buddy gave your friend that purple fly that caught a fish or 2.
Chironomid fishing was definitely not the way to go, however we got lucky and found some cleaner water and the game was on. Two of us caught over 30 fish in about 3 hours even with an intense wind on Wednesday afternoon. It was the first time there for us all and all the stories we had heard were true. The size and fight of those fish has to be experienced. I like the bad road, it keeps most people out of there.
Although the wind and rain was an issue at times you could still pick your spots and get into fish. The four of us caught one helluva lot of fish in about 3 days of fishable weather. We are definitely making this an annual trip.
