Well I didnt get any greyling but I caught some nice rainbows. It was pretty fun going to a new place up in the hills. ANy one know what I could throw at the greyling to catch a few. I dont know why I want to catch some so bad but I do. Any help would be great. I would guess that they are going to be deep because the lake is a bit warm, but i could be mistaken. ANy one know?

If you really want to catch a greyling hike a floatube into Grebe Lake in Yellowstone. Go early in the morning before the wind comes up. The fishing is awesome and the rainbows are the hardest fighting for their size I have found anywhere.

How far is it from West yellowstone? And what do you use there? thats my next lake to hit. I might hit Horse shoe again but I am getting antsy.

It is inbetween Norris and Canyon Village. I guess it takes me about 45min early in the morning if I already have my licensces and permits.

I use small leeches and nymphs. Prince Nymphs, pheasant tails, etc... work just fine. I don't think they are very picky. If the wind isn't blowing too hard you can catch them on top with a parachute adams or a small humpy.

I'll second that. Grebe lake is awesome

I was hoping to get up there and hook a few Grayling myself, but it sounds a little slow. I am planning a trip in September to Copper Basin so I may get lucky and hook a few up there along with some Goldens. If everything goes right, that will knock off 2 more fish from my list of fish to catch for this year. That would only leave me 1 fish left and that may not happen unless I get back down the Preston way.

PRVRT, you need to get down this way. We went to the Uintas Saturday and even standing on shore casting the best we could into a cold face wind, I cast FOUR TIMES. First one a Tiger Trout, second a Brookie, third a Rainbow and four.......A GRAYLING!

Honest to GAWD...it was the Craziest thing that has ever happened to me.
Four cast - four different species!

As far as fight....close on the Tiger trout and the Grayling, but I think the Grayling had just a little more.

Now that is what I call a variety of fish. Nice. I have thought about getting a Utah license, but I do not get down that way very often to make it worth it. I think I will add a Tiger Trout to the list next year along with the Tiger Muskie that I probably will not catch this year.

We do sell licenses by the day[laugh] And I don't believe our season licenses are pushing the $100. mark...oh and no invasive species special tag at an additional cost.[Wink]

WOW! two points for the variety bag! how big was the tiger? that's on my dream list too.

Only maybe 8" as they were all around that except I did land a 16" rainbow, but very skinny.
