Headed to the north/northeast end of the lake at about 7:30am to try and snag one of the big browns Ive been hearing about. The rain was off and on, mostly off. I set up one rod with marshmallow/worm and the other with marshmallow/shrimp. I switched up to power eggs but still nothing. Finally at around 10:30 after a bone chilling 3 hours I got a bite on the marshmallow/worm, a solid 13" rainbow. Another guy a few yards away hooked one about the same size with a silver castmaster. At about 11, literally right as I was about to reel in and head home, another bite! This time what I thought was just a big rainbow, about 17".

It wasn't untill I got home and really looked at it that I realized it was in fact a german brown! Well, it wasn't the monster I was looking for but it was the first brown Ive gotten from greenlake, and it did put up a fight, so I was happy.

From talking to the locals and from my experience, it seems like the fish have been switching off hitting worm/marshmallow and power eggs on a week by week basis, and they've been hanging out on the north end, closer to the bottom as the weeds have died off. But man its getting cold! Gotta bring gloves next time.
