Thanks everyone for the tips and advice. We had a great camping trip. I made it up to Echo Lake with a GMC Yukon, but had no luck on the Golden Trout. The only thing biting were the Brookies. We also tried Washington and Trial lake for the Grayling, but didn't have any luck. We did catch a bunch of Rainbows, and a few Tigers. Overall it was a great trip!
I really wanted to catch fish on flies or lures, but had almost no luck on any lake with them. I spent the whole time trying with no luck while my kids were catching fish left and right with bait. In fact I've rarely been able to catch trout from the shore of any lake with lures or flies. I do pretty well on streams, but never have much luck on lakes trout fishing with anything other than bait. Anyone have any advice on what's worked for you when using flies or lures on lakes? Is there a trick to the presentation that needs to be used. Do I need to be retrieving my lures or flies faster or slower, any advice for future trips would be great!
