Lake or River:Roche Lake
Date:07-May-2006
Comments:
Fished Roche Fri May 5. Although the weather has been sunny and warm, the water is still very cold. Fishing midges in about 6-8 feet of water seemed to be working for most that were having any success. Black, red rib, and clear glass bead produced for us. The fish were active and eager take our flys for most of the morning/day until the wind really picked up...around 2pm. For those of you heading to Roche, be prepared for the wind. Have fished this lake about 4 times only to experience the wind each and every time. Give this lake another week or two and it should really get good. Tight lines!

Comments:
I left Marquart lake three days ago, I had been fishing there for the preceeding 5 days, and contrary to the report given by the powderkeg sportshop, the fish were not very eager to take a fly, there was absolutly no chironomids emerging. I did try several collors and wasted a couple of days with chironomids. I managed to catch a few on a small pheasant tail nymps, and wooly buggers. and no one elles onnt he lake was doing well either. seems like the season is about 2 weeks later then last year. water was still only 8 degrees.
