Northwest Fishing Reports

Bravo, Well said raptorschild.

It is sad that the mentality around Washington is to cater to the draggers. I personally have been fighting the WDFW for over three years to not kill off Badger lake. I have presented studies of how many trout are being caught out of badger compared to fishermen hours ,and how the trout which are pl...

Does anyone know how the ice is on Eloika.

Thank you

New menu icons really suck,, I mean really suck....

its alright with me,, I will just find them with my lowrance and fish them for you..

it is illegal,as the previous poster said do not get caught.

Read all the reviews on the units you are interested in. And do not skimp on the screen size, that is the worst mistake most individuals will make. On my bass boat I have a HDS10 gen2 with structure scan and a HDS8 gen2 on the bow.At first I thought I went to big on the screen size. Now after using ...

I was on long lake (lake Spokane) chasing largies one early morning in November, and my boy and I heard some howling and we knew they weren't coyotes..
It is great to see the wolves back in their native habitat where they belong..

Excellent, now I would love to hear how the seasonal patterns are for the eastern side of the state.

Not to burst your bubble, but that will spin while you are casting it and stripping it in .. Good looking fly, but sorry that is what we call a spin cycle fly in the industry.

You are tying your fly on to the tippet with a perfection loop? that knot is used for a loop to loop connection, never have heard of anyone using it to tie their fly to the tippet..

We don't talk about this lake as we want to keep it all to ourselves..
Smallies hot on jigs, swimbaits and plastics, greenbass all I can say is "Ribbit"

you can fish along the dam along Hwy 262 to your hearts content for smallies.

Use a bow and kill the ugly things and remove them from your waters.. Bow hunting for carp is legal..

It depends on how big your bullocks are. No serious. Your safety is first and foremost. I used to take my 14' valco with a 20hp all over Roosevelt lake and banks,, if the wind or weather got nasty I would wait it out or hug the shoreline.. It's up to how well your boating skills are and your boat.

Blood or double uni.

The way I got my oldest interested was putting him on a non stop crappie and bluegill bite until he he was bored when he was 6.
Worked wonders, now I cannot get a rod out of his hands..

Texas, Georgia, Anywhere in the Carolina's and Oklahoma are big cat country.. LOL

That may be it! He certainly works the spool well with his thumb. He is also quite determined to make it work. I honestly for the life of me can't believe he can cast it effectively, but he does! He has even become quite good at fixing his own backlashes. THAT is worth the price of admission! Love ...

I learned how to educate my thumb to throw a casting reel when I was 10 by flylining anchovies off the stern of the SoCal party boats out of Newport fishing for bonito and mackerel. Keep trying it can be done..
