It does get busy on the long weekends and the wind can be strong in the afternoon - but when it settles down in the evening and the trout start rising to caddis flies, it can be great fishing. Lots of places to fish - weedbeds, dropoffs, etc. I've had some incredible evenings flyfishing that lake.

my campsite will be the one with a pig on a spit and accordian music :)

I've done well slow-mooching a bloodworm on a sinking tip fly line. The larger fish tend to be muddy tasting as soon as the water warms.

if your not having any luck on tunkwa head over to leighton, one of these lakes always seems to do better than the other.
