Roche Lake opens May 1st. Does anyone know how the fishing usually is opening weekend? Is there a chance you could be still flirting with turnover?
Thanks.

i was there last year, about a week after opening day. fishing was moderate to good. once you found the hole and the right fly, the bite was steady. i don't think you'll be dealing with turnover during that time.

pulled this guy out on a black micro leech on that trip. i plan to head up there around the same time again this year.

so depending on the weather you could be in the turn

I spend a fair amount of time fishing at Roche and have had success throughout the year. I find that the best time is in the early spring (so May 1st should be good) before the water gets to warm. Once the water warms up too much, the fish seem to get lethargic but can still be enticed to bite in the deeper waters.

Hope this helps :cheers:
