Comments:

• Derby was wrapping up on arrival; looked like a number of limits were taken using Power Bait, Trout Worms, and Corn.
• Also noted the Super Duper in Gold and Silver were getting lots of strikes!
• Delayed counted, followed by a fast retrieve was working for Super Dupers. Later, it looked like a slower retrieve was preferred.
• Guadalupana was the go to fly again. Trout were striking on a slow retrieve and/or no retrieve at first. Later, a 6-12 count delay, then a fast retrieve was preferred. Then, a stop and go retrieve like we used at Towne Lake was preferred.

Landed:

• 44 Rainbow Trout – 9″-12″ – Guadalupana – Sz 12 and 14
