Thirty years ago, I caught 100 trout per day. Last year, I caught zero trout over a span of four days. I hardly saw any fish rising at night. The frogs are all gone, no croaking at night. Someone needs to help Nellie Lake. It is beautiful, but devoid of life.

I have been to Nellie Lake 5 or 6 times over the years. Best fishing I have ever experienced for rainbow, and an occasional 18 inch Brook trout. Use extremely small yellow Panther Martin lure with silver blade with 2 pound test line. Cast, allow to sink for twenty seconds, then small twitches with slow retrieve. Bammmm Morning and Evenings are best. Last trip over twenty years ago.

Like Tom Jensen, I've fished Nellie many times over the last several years, and found the fishing to be outstanding most of the time. I fished it this year in June, and found no fish at all. There were blue damsels and large mayflies hatching, but nothing chasing them. I saw one dead trout, otherwise nothing. I wonder what happened?
