December is one of the best months on this lake. Midge hatches, midge hatches!! Baum lake is fishing fair to great! It does almost 365 days a year. #18-20 midges come off daily. Add in cloudy skies and it's a recipe for good angling. Hatches of BWOs happen when conditions are just right: cloud cover and wet weather. You can get into some good dry fly fishing here.

This east side venue is a worthwhile spot to cast your next fly. Bring your pontoon boat or float tube. Get on the water early for best dry fly chances throwing #18 Adams or BWO patterns. Fish midge nymphs mid day. The bite is really slow late afternoon through sundown.  Fish First (530) 343-8300
