Can browns be caught in lakes?

[#0000FF]I think the hatchery trucks usually drop their loads at either the main Hailstone ramp or over at the PWC ramp. But the new arrivals seem to move all over the lake pretty quickly. Trolled it with Doglover one year right after the plant and we caught them all around the lake on silver spinners...trolled shallow.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]Right after iceout is the single best time for trolling for browns...and some big ones. Troll right off the shoreline trees with big cranks.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]The reason so many fish gravitate up the Rock Cliff arm is that is where the Provo River dumps in. The browns go there for spawning. The rainbows for the fresh water inflows and the underwater food chain...baby perch, aquatic insects, etc. There are almost always some decent rainbows to be had between the buoys and the river. Got a few nice cutts in there too. (and some browns)[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]I used to fish Jordanelle a lot in the late fall. My best action was always by casting spinners along the shoreline...or fishing a bubble and fly at mid depth. And strangely, black and orange were some of the best colors for fall (halloween).
