Water temps have been in the mid 70’s by afternoon so trolling with a lead core set up including at least 60’ of leader - 2 colors in the AM and 4-5 colors as the day heats up was the ticket.

Trollers are pulling easy limits on Speedy Shiners and spoons at 20–30 feet... faster speeds are working better on the east side, slower on the west. Fly anglers have been having a blast nymphing...
The action at Eagle Lake has been on fire since the reopening on May 23. Water temps are still in the low 60s, and conditions are absolutely perfect. Trollers are pulling easy limits on Speedy Shiners and spoons at 20–30 feet... faster speeds are working better on the east side, slower on the west. Fly anglers have been having a blast nymphing orange flies over rock piles in 10–15 feet of water. Eagle Lake's famous unique-strain trout are living up to their name... hitting hard, putting up awesome fights, and eating very well.

Fish have pushed to the top of the water column, with trout up to 5 pounds reported last week from 20 feet up to the surface. Orange has been the hot color...
