Caples

Anybody fished caples lately ?

Caples Lake or Caples Creek?

[Smitty Fish]

That would be lake. My bad.

I will be fishing it this week and post a report. Doesn't seem like it has come back too well from the draining.

Try up the hill at Woods Lake they stock the heck out of it.
Over the Pass to Red Lake.

Both are best fished from a tube or boat.

If you hit Red Lake fish the weed beds on the West End. Mid day - floating snails, #14-16 rusty blood midge nymphs, scuds (see Cutters chapter in Fish Food) and calibeatis. If the wind doesn't pick up there is usually a good blood midge hatch in the evening.

You can always drop down to Hope Valley and hit the W. Carson while you're there.
