East Lake Fish Report for 9-13-2025
East Lake days have been good!
East Lake - La Pine, OR (Deschutes County)

East Lake days have been good, but some days the afternoon callibaetis hatch is tricky to match. My best luck has been with a Captive Dun #1, a Film Critic #2, a Gallops Spent Bent Hook #3, and a tie between the Sparkle Dun and the Cream Extended Body Callibaetis. I will also say it is a good idea to have some Purple Haze and Olive Haze in the selection when Callibaetis are out.
A lot of Terrestrial action can be found along the shorelines with Hoppers, Ants, Beetles and Chubby’s. Royal Chubby is my favorite along with a Red Hippie Stomper.
Nymphing a Callibaetis Cate, Red Jig PT, Blood Worms, Ice Cream Cones, Hanging with my Chromies and Balanced Leeches are all good under an indicator, or strip damsels, scuds and un-beaded callibaetis nymphs on the shore line with a Hover or Ghost Tip line.
I am told the docks at the resort are coming out this week. That means for me I will either use my drift boat or do a lot more at Paulina until the end of the season.
