Northwest Fishing Reports

Well i dont own a boat so im kind of limited in washington considering all the lakes around here are surrounded with houses lol

So i was just wondering if anyone knew of some good lakes around that have good bank access ive been to spanaway, american, lewis, washington, and a couple others but im looking for a lake i can actually walk around not just a single dock or a single opening on one side of the lake :P

Any help would be great, thanks yall

There are also places to rent boats. I would head Thurston Co. outside Olympia and try Offut they rent electric motor boats they are $30 for four hours. You can also get row boats for $10. They also have pontoons if a few buddies want to pitch in or u are taking a family. I don't know of many lakes up there or anywhere on the west side that is why I went and got boats from Offut.

PS
I talked to my friend and the bass/trout are biting out there.

Well i went to silver lake, alder and mineral but all suck at bank fishing lol or were to crazy crowded anyone know of some lakes within 50 miles of ft lewis that have open .... not just boat launch fishing spots? lol sorry im from idaho and lakes around there are all open and arent surrounded by houses so you could see why i am upset hahah but on the plus side i did hear someone pulled a 10 pound trout out of mineral lake on the day of the derby there an won

A 10= lb fish always wins Minerals derby:-" Look at Mc Intosh it has a bit of bank access if Offut isn't up your ally.
