Question trout

I have always used dry flies for trout, i am now trying to fish a lake, and need some wet flies any ideas?
thanks,
fnd

If I don't have anything to do with the water, It ain't worth doing.

trout

steamers (black nosed dace, mickey finn) and nymphs are reliable wet fly options.

Try some muddler minnows , standard color brown for rainbows and muddlers with yellow or white mixed in for brookies.This time of year with the water being cold try a sink tip and as the water warms go to a full sinking line.

Thumbs up wet flies

I like to use woolly buggers. A small amount of weight and stripped moderate to slow with a 2 or 3 count pause between. Most luck with olive and black or just white. I tie flashaboo into all the bodies. I would be willing to swap you flies if you have some good striper flies.
