I went out to Green attempting to target the browns I'd heard were out there as I was taking a friend that was newer at fishing so I figured this way he could catch the rainbows and I could target the browns and hopefully we'd end up with the same amount of fish. I started trolling a big 3/4 ounce metallic perch krocadile, much larger than anything I've tried on this lake. Almost immediately I hooked a 13" trip. Not exactly what I was hoping for but at least the size of fish was a little better.

After circling the lake once I decided to switch to a black and white diving rapala. No matter what I did, fast/slow/medium I could not keep it out of the weeds (I was on the south side of the lake). I did manage to pick up a rock bass trolling it in between one of my stops to remove weeds. I switched to a suspending broke-back perch rapala and had the same issue with the weeds so I went back to the big krocadile.

Ended up catching 4 fish 12-14" in about 2 hours and releasing 3-4 smaller. Lost another ~14" at the boat. Had a ton (~20) single strikes without hookups. I am guessing it was smaller trout coming up and smacking at the big spoon but who knows.

My friend lost one inside the boat (he was swinging it around on the line like it was a club... he's really quite hopeless but I tried) and otherwise only had 1-2 strikes. He was using a new rod/reel combo he must have picked up minutes earlier with the shitty factory line still on it and spent most his time fighting rats nests, but did have 1-2 other strikes. He was fishing spinners.

Attached are pictures of the trout, largest one is 14". Didn't hook up a single Brown, so if anyone has any hints at how to target them I'd appreciate it.
