Lily Lake

Fished Lily Lake on Hwy 7 just outside of RMNP this week and it didn't let us down.  Fish were very active around noon as damsels filled the air.  Lily is best fished using a belly boat, however we were on foot and had to make do.  Greenbacks were cruising the edges at times and feeding on a variety of insects.  A size 12 Callibaetis emerger pleased them just fine as well as a Barr Damsel in a size 10.  The fish weren't huge ranging from 8-11" but absolutely beautiful.  If you do fish Lily Lake please fish barbless flies and return the fish to the water immediately!
