Lake Selmac received another 5,000 legal rainbow trout this week to complement fish stocked earlier in February. Fishing should be picking up at Selmac, especially with very little weed growth to contend with in the spring. When visibility is good, reports have been good with fly anglers fishing leeches or streamers and a slow strip. Gear anglers should expect good success as visibility improves
