I had some brilliant days (and cold mornings) at Hosmer Lake this week. Fishing a white streamer on a Midge Tip or Ghost Tip was the shizz. Some nymphs action on CB Cate under the indicator, but it needed to be moved slowly or no bite on the static nymph at all. I was worried about ice on the lake Wednesday as I drove by Devils Lake it was mostly frozen and I remembered a day in 2017 with my friends Micheal and Pete when we got to Hosmer and couldn’t get up the channel until noon because it was frozen. At the time I was using a Clackacraft, and Fear No Rock may have been the slogan, but the boat was no Ice Breaker I can assure you.
Get some white streamers and go.
