I went out to Greenlake at 6:00 am this morning. Beautiful sunrise, water like glass. I was fishing from my float tube. Fish were active on the surface everywhere. Usually I do well here with a nightcrawler under a bobber, I had two bites within a few minutes, and then not another interaction for 3 hours. All the while the trout and carp were crazy on the surface. If you came out here with a fly rod from a float tube and some dry flies you'd do well. I put in on the west side about 65th street, went out to the middle and then circled the island and came back along the west bank.
saw one other father/son combo in a boat fishing under bobbers also, but saw no fish hooked.
The pleasure of the morning was as I was sitting still in the float tube... I've got some new polarized glasses..... I saw the biggest carp I've ever seen just cruise slowly right about 8' from my tube. He was every bit as big as a salmon. Saw his whole body. No exaggeration. Then I had a large trout maybe 2lbs that was just again, cruising along side of me and showing himself well.
