Fishing Report: Hatheume at present, is managed as a trout catch and release, barbless hook, fly-only lake. Recently rehabilitated, Hatheume is making a comeback and its future looks bright. Historically this lake was a fabulous fly fishing lake and there is no reason to think that it won't be great again. With a good spring Chironomid hatch and Caddisfly hatch in mid June to early July, the lake is great for the dry fly enthusiast. Rainbows are now being caught in the 2+ lb. range.
