2. The hike will be busy. I was there on July 1st when it opened up for fishing and there was still snow on the trail and ice on the lake and it was a zoo. Lots of people. Most were just hikers and picnicers but expect a lot of people.

3. The creek can hold a lot of fish as well so try there. I mostly fish on the far side of the lake from the trail along the scree slope. It has pretty good depth on that side.
Awesome, thank you!. I may try a nymph on some spinning gear with an indicator, I really don't feel like pulling out the fly rod this year. Appreciate the help!.
