Lake fishing is different, and I have learned two things:
Lake fish cruise around looking for lunch instead of waiting for the current to deliver it like in a river. You need to 1) find them and 2) figure out where they're going
We used nymphs on long leaders with indicators and tried to cast them to where the fish were going. I have no idea if a streamer would work or not!
Be sure to report back. :-)

Subject: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Mountain Lake Trout Fishing
Hey Guys,
I'm headed up to the Wind River Range in Wyoming in just over two weeks for a trip with NOLS (National Outdoor Leadership School). I've been reading up as much as I can about the fishing up there but information isn't quite as prevalent as I hoped. The one thing that keeps coming up is that the majority of fishing takes place in mountain lakes at high elevations. It's a style of fishing I'm completely unfamiliar with, being more comfortable throwing streamers at largemouth bass like the newb that I am.
Any advice on how to fish these lakes would be incredibly appreciated as I'd hate to spend two weeks in the mountains and come back emptyhanded.
Andrew
