thinkin about heading to lindeman

[guthrie]

hey guys,
brand new to the board and to fly fishing, was looking for some lakes in the valley to go and check out this weekend and am thinkin about hiking in to lindeman. any advice on the lake for an eager and beginner fly fisherman?

Bring a tube and wear lots of layers on any part of you that will be underwater. The water will be so cold that you'll be amazed that it's liquid (assuming, of course, that it has iced off now). I did well trolling a black w/ red sparkle micro leech along the near (trail) side of the lake and the inflow at the far end. This is just a guess, but I'd imagine that fishing chronnies in the shoal area around the inflow creek would be pretty effective this time of year. Did I mention that you should dress warm?

thats a nice little lake, i haven't been there long time, but its a nice hike with some nice fish in it.
I'll second that roughingminor said. bring warm clothes

thanks for the info guys. didnt make it to lindeman today, ended up going to weaver and hiked around on the east side. waded in a bit, not much luck but was able to practice my cast some more and finally feeling alittle more confident. need to find some lakes with some nice clear shore lines to save me from losing flies on the back cast. weaver was fairly buisy with boats. might of had a hit on a mayfly nymph but then again it could have just been me imagining it.
