[GreenLantern]

So I bought a fly rod last fall, it's just the Nighthawk combo pack from Pure Fishing (Fenwick/Pfleuger parts). It's a 4 weight rod.

Just trying to get my beak wet. Went out once to a stocked splake/rainbow lake, no success. I don't really know what I am doing yet.. but I've been watching youtube resources and practicing my cast over winter, so I have seen improvement.. but it's still a struggle lol.

First stop for me this spring will be some stocked brown, rainbow and brook trout spots on our way to a bigger lake for walleye season opener. All clear water glacier formed lakes, no streams.

Just looking for some tips on what to look for in terms of water temps, structure, times of day, patterns, what kind of fly you generally have success on etc..

I am a total newb. I understand most of the basics, but a lot of it is still foreign to me. I've been spin casting since I was 5, but basically 99% Walleye/Pike. So feel free to throw any knowledge my way if you have the time.

We will be heading about 3 hours NE of Saskatoon in mid May.
