East Delaney Lake - Fishing has been pretty good with reports of an occasional 20-inch fish being caught in the coves of the western shoreline. Trout are feeding mainly on callibaetis and Chironomid hatches. Try fishing a #16 Mosquito, #18 Griffith's Gnat or #16 Callibaetis Extended Body between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. and again in the evenings. Lure casters have caught some fish on silver Kastmasters, Super Dupers and Thomas Fighting Fish, mostly on the west shore. This lake is restricted to flies and lures only with a two-fish limit.

Estes Lake - Murky water requires streamers and bright-colored lures fished fairly deep, 3 to 6 feet down. Bait fishers do best at the inlet with Power Bait, eggs and worms. Lure casters should use Z-Rays, Thomas Buoyants and Kastmasters. Fly casters are having fair results with Matukas, Zonkers and Woolly Buggers.

Hidden Lakes - Fishing is fair to good using small Tasmanian Devils, Thomas Buoyants and Dardevles. Some good catches have been made by bait fishermen with eggs and worms. Flycasters do best with Woolly Buggers and Spruce Fly streamers. Evening dry fly action is good with Pale Evening Duns, Ginger Quills and Quill Gordons fished in shoreline pockets.

Hohnholz Lakes - Fishing is good with a lot of midge activity and look for the callibaetis hatch to start soon. Flyfishers have made some good catches on weighted Woolly Buggers and Green Scuds. Bait works best in Lake #2. Little Tasmanian Devils and Thomas Cyclones are most effective in Lake #3. Most of the fish are browns up to 18 inches with the occasional cutbow.
