Fuller Lake CA 5/20/2017

It had been three years since I had been to Fuller Lake, but I always hear good things about it for fly fishing. I looked up the fish planting schedule and saw that fish were planted in Fuller Lake recently.  I decided it was a good time to give Fuller Lake a try. 
I reached out to my cousin Chase to go and we headed out at 5 am Saturday morning. We were feeling really optimistic.  We got there a little after 6 and were the only ones there. We filled up our float tubes and set out on the lake.  I started out with the Fuller Lake fly, which is a smaller olive colored wooly bugger. As we worked our way over to the opposite side of the lake we didn't get a single strike. So I began switching through my flies with no luck. When we got to the other side of the lake I noticed that I was losing air in my tube and there was no way that I was going to make it to the other side of the lake. 
I kicked myself over to the bank and walked over to my car, and pumped my tube back up.  I then packed my pump in the tube just in case I started losing air on the lake again. I launched back into the lake determined to catch a fish. I went through all of my wet flies. Now when I say all of my wet flies, I mean all of them. I tried mixing up my retrieval and nothing. I didn't get a single strike and neither did my cousin.  It was very disappointing. Others around us were catching though.  I saw people using spinners catching the most. 
One positive from this trip was that my float tube didn't deflate again, but this is the third time I had been to this lake and I can’t remember every catching.  I must just have a smell the fish don't like there or something. I really have nothing to report for advice, but I know there are fish in there and I know people that catch there. I'm going to have to do some more research before I go next time.  Good luck out there!
