Some news that is a week old is the fish were keying on beetles and there were very few kayaks on the lake. If the weather is good, this mountain lake would be a good choice for some good fishing. Fish should be chasing Damselfly & Dragonfly nymphs. Fishing Balanced Damsels under an indicator is a good tactic when there is chop, slowly stripping them on a floating or intermediate sinking line on glassy-surfaced areas usually works best. Look for Callibaetis spinner fall in the mid mornings and the hatching insects to happen later on. Mahogany Duns are also hatching, so bring your Adams in smaller sizes, #18 - 20, to match these smaller insects. The Purple Para Wolf in smaller sizes can work for the Mahoganies. A lot of midges are happening now too, so it never hurts to tie on a #16 or 18 black Zebra Midge. A full sinking line can be useful to probe the depths of this lake with black Leeches if you are looking for large Browns.
