Laramie Plains Lakes Fishing Report
Laramie Plains Lakes Fishing Report: Lake Hattie,Twin Buttes,and Meeboar have all been fishing very well. Alsop,Gelatt,and Diamond Lake have reported great catch rates as well! The Wyoming Game and Fish Department reported no significant winter kill events. Most of the lakes have already been stocked and holdover trout are in great shape.
The Plains Lakes will be a great alternative from the swollen local rivers and streams that are now experiencing run off. Memorial Day weekend anglers are sure to have success at all of them. Dry fly fishing is getting better by the day with midges and caddis. Terrestrials like flying ants,hoppers,and beetles have been working too! Look for the damsel flies and callibaetis to start coming off any day. Damselfly nymphs, Hares ears,and Prince nymphs have been producing very well.
Brown,Black,and Olive balanced hot head leeches and pine squirrel leech patterns with chironomid droppers under indicators have been working great as well. Check out our online fly shop for all the hand tied custom flies we design specifically for these waters. Stripping leeches,woolly buggers, and common still water attractor patterns like boobies and blobs on sink tip lines,is a deadly method for catching sizable trout.
Lures such as Rapalas,gold spoon black body Panther Martins,Mepps,and Dare Devil type spoons in the silver,gold,and red/white variation are best.
Fly and bubble anglers will do great with Hornbergs,Renegades, and all of the flies mentioned above. Standard bait rigs fished on the bottom with worms,salmon egg spawn sacs,and leeches all producing great fish.
