East Lake is fishing quite well with Callibaetis and Damsels in all stages. Beetles, Ants and Grasshoppers are also producing well. Take your pick on the wade option or boat option, as both have been good.
Seems like a lot of fish near the shorelines from a foot deep to 12 to 15 feet.
Fishing damsels nymphs near the shoreline and over the weed beds in deeper areas is good.
I like wind-drifting with a drogue to keep the boat controlled and use an intermediate line and a damsel nymph with a flashback PT or Poxy Back Callibaetis in tow.
The Callibaetis Cate Jig under the indicator has also been good for us.
