-Float fishing Diamond Lake in the snow (05-24-10)-

[steelhead_stalkers]

I had the chance to go out to Diamond Lake with my uncle and we had a great day of fishing. The weather was horrible and snowed on us most of the time, on top of that I ended up soaking my feet before we even started the morning when pushing the boat off the rocks. :lol: Good thing we found what the fish wanted or it would have been a miserable day being that it only got up to 35 degrees. :D Here are a few pics from the day.

Here is the fly that was killing them up there! All of my big fish came on this fly. I hooked 6 between 17 and 23 inches.

We are in the process of perfecting a combination to fish under a float at Diamond Lake and these jigs and flys will be made exclusively for this lake!

I hooked probably 30 or 40 trout up there in a half day of fishing and it was less than perfect conditions. Once the weather stabilizes the combination above is going to be killer at Diamond Lake. :D We will be filming a video up there very soon showing exactly how we fish for these trout including three different techniques that are deadly on trout in any lake or pond.
