I have little to no experience flyfishing, but I've trolled and casted East Lake several times. What I've seen from flyfishermen has been floating along the west side of the lake. I tend to see them in the SW corner of the lake early in the morning, and then getting farther north away along that coastline as time goes by. I'm not sure as to what they're catching, but that's just what I can remember. Also, the guy who owns and runs the resort is VERY nice and helpful. My best friend and I try to make it every year for about a week, and he has always given us great tips on what's been working for others, and which spots seem to have the most activity.
