Great evening on lake. First cast had a brown streak behind my spoon...I twitched it back to the boat and wham! nice trout on the line...got it close to boat and it threw hook. I was pretty shocked. Cast and trolled for a while and got hit by this second brown just before sundown...nice, nice strong fighter.

I did not bring my net for this fish, so hence the "rough handling" photo here. I didn't touch the fish, the hook came out easily, no slime coat damage, and it swam away nicely (I feel guilty!)

It got dark and the ranger shooed me off the lake, otherwise I would have fished more. I knew there were browns in here, but I didn't figure to hook into two of them in the same day.

48-53 degrees outside, constant drizzle and rain, very light wind. Water was fairly clear, but stained brownish, fish were rising from deeper water to strike the spoon. I think both were near the remaining grass/weedlines adjacent to deeper water. Got one on a slower twitch retrieve, and one on a slower troll with spoon. I think it is a castmaster.
