Northwest Fishing Reports

Well, it's finally time to sell my Roadking. We just don't ride it enough and selling it will help me to upgrade my boat. Here's a link to my craigslist ad.

Yes sir a frosty mug is the only way to go. Get that hop slice while you can it's a summer ale and only available may though August.

Hop Slice brewed by the Deschutes brewery!!

We worked early on Tuesday to beat the heat a little and I was off at 2 o clock. Took a co worker with me to Cda looking for pike and didn't do too bad for a short trip. He started the day with a 27"er. I finished with 4 pike with the top three going 29-30-31" NO monsters but nice fat hard fighting ...

Released 2 small pike and lost a decent fish last night on the north end of Cda. The ones you lose don't count so two more brings me to 162. I'm plenty ready for the water temps to drop about 15 degrees.

Metallic Golden Perch color? How about showing us a photo of that bait.

I had a 6 fish day on Cda yesterday, bringing me to 160 for the year. Saw another monster that was only willing to follow a spinnerbait back to the boat and get me all worked up, and not bite. Best three fish were 30-30- and 32" weighing in at 7 1/2 to 9 pounds. Spinnerbaits in 6-10 FOW next to deep...

Yes. There are still a few pike in the Pend Oreille river. However. a day long trip to that body of water, even by an experienced pike fisherman will likely produce next to no fish, and if you do catch one, it will likely be very small. I believe they are still putting out their gill nets in the spr...

Ya, right

If you want Pikes, head on over to the Pend Oriel. ????
Don't waste your time fishing the Pend Oreille river for pike, at least in the Box Canyon area. They freaking killed them all. Remember???

Hey Fish N Fool, I sent you an email. I fished a new spot to me on Saturday and managed only one fish but I think it's going to be a good location for more fish. One more brings me to 154 for the year. The one I got was a nice fat 34 1/2"er that weighed in at 12 pounds. She put up an amazing fight s...

There are so many bucket biologists that if Pike could survive in Western Washington they would already be here. Bass are in every lake already... I can guarantee you that pike would survive I many lakes on the west side. They are very a very hearty fish and can adapt to any body of water that has ...

Rick, Back in the days when the POR was a GREAT place to fish for pike, I would target them with senkos when the water was warm, and they loved them. I would think your sinkin fools would be a great bait to throw at the pike. Pike larger than about 27-28" slow down and get a bit lethargic in warm wa...

I put 7 more pike in the boat today bringing me to 153 for the year. Spinnerbaits did the trick along with a big hammer swim bait behind a chatter bait blade. FYI all fish were caught in water temps of 73 degrees and higher. Warmest was caught at 76 degrees. Don't be scared to fish that warm water. ...

Well for a chance to see some new productive water I would be happy to bring my boat and help you look for them. Don't let the water temps fool you. In 2015 I caught two pike that went 45 1/2" each on consecutive trips in 75 degree water. It was odd they were in that warm of water but they sure were...

Nice healthy looking fish!! I spent part of the day at the Clark Fork drift yard, and Denton slough. I got followed off a point with a rocky shoreline near Denton. Denton looked great but the entire slough looked to be about 6-9 feet deep and the weeds there made it real tough to fish. I also put in...

Rick, Your video doesn't seem to be working. Just says video is private. Your recent posts got me going so I headed up north on Saturday to see if I could find any pike in an area I have wanted to try for a long time. No luck for me. I fished all day and had one follow from a fish about 30". That wa...

Good to see the Fishers are still fishing. Looks like your having a good season so far. Keep at em.

Right on Rick keep at em. Sounds like you have a great fishery located

I have always been a Braunsweiger fan. I don't see it in stores much anymore. I always used the stone ground mustard and a big slab of Walla Walla sweet onion. It tasted great but it's hard to have a fairly close conversation with anyone after eating that combination.
