Some good reports coming in on Lewiston. The main area you will want to target is the Clair Engle inflow. Fish can come on a variety of offerings, Zebra Midges in #16 & 18, Perdigons and Rubberlegs usually work well. On the flats you can find fish cruising in pods and these fish can be tempted with Damseleeches & Swimming Leeches or a Pheasant Tail in sizes #16 - 18 fished on an I-line or under an indicator.
The lake is a good option if you are in the area, with intermittent releases from Trinity Lake, fishing right below the outflow can produce some consistent hookups. With the amount of Damsels and Dragonflies in this system, Wooly Buggers stripped in brown, black and olive, and Balanced Leeches the same color stripped or fished under an indicator are solid approaches. And Zebra Midges in #16 - 18, black and red, are a staple here. We've got guides who can get you out on Lewiston, give Bryan a call to set up a trip!
