They call them Allen's Olive Willy, Bead Heads.... I may be up there with a buddy later this week. It supposed to be like 80 degrees Thursday.

5/12/2008 8:41:00 PMno, this was my first trip to RS. But, after reading some of the reports, I went with the solid green bugger and it worked. I had a couple of half hour spells with no bites. I'm sure many types of flies will work. i did keep two small trout for my neighbor who immediately cooked them up, he enjoyed them. these trout have to be hungry, found lots of odd items in their stomachs. chunks of wood, rock, and other debris.

I seem to hook all my larger fish in the late evenings on small emerger patterns and parachute hares ears & lightening bugs sizes 18-22. Real small. They are hungry, but the smaller the fly, seems to catch the larger fish. Just my experience. They are tasty if kept that's for sure! The buggers/streamers, etc. seem to catch more fish, just smaller fish. Gotta love this lake...just wonder when the water level is going to come up...
