Great report. Cool experience. I've only taken one laker on a fly and it
was a fluke. I had backpacked into a lake and was fishing a Humpy near
the outlet. I was catching lots of Brookies about 10 to 12" when I saw
what looked like a submarine slowly appear out of the depths. For some
crazy reason the laker came up out of over 20' of water to suck in my
little Humpy. I probably would have gone 8 to 10 pounds. Not too big for
a laker but my biggest fly caught fish at the time and very cool on a dry.

I'm pretty sure I know the spot. How do you get the timing down for
hitting the run? Is there local info on this?
