Chelan County's Dry Lake covers 77 surface acres and has a maximum depth of only 11 feet. Fish species include lunker sized largemouth bass, nice sized crapppie, yellow perch, bluegill and brown bullhead catfish. This lake is best fished in the Spring and early Summer before the aquatic weeds get too thick. Public access is from a rough road side site suited for hand carried craft only. To get there from the town of Chelan, travel northwest on Highway #150 for 6.4 miles to Wapato Lake Road. Turn right onto Wapato Lake Road for about three miles to the Kanei Resort on the west end of Wapato Lake. Turn sharp left onto Dry Lake Road for about .6 mile to rough road side parking and boat launch area.
