That sounds like so much fun... Wish I had a boat or a friend with one. Someday I will but just not now.

Bothellfisher this should have a good turn out with a few extra seats for people who dont have a boat
Mike- Cant wait! Thanks for getting this together again!
To all the new people who are going to fish Lake Chelan for the first time Im sure any questions you have can be answered in a PM or on this thread. The fishing on this lake is WORLD CLASS for big Kokanee, Lake Trout and even Land locked Chinook. A few of us have this lake dailed in and Im sure wouldnt mind sharing a few tips and pointers on the fishing. I will be over there a few days before doing some scouting and Im sure lots of fish will be getting worked over!

Don't count it out, as Steelheading360 noted, there will surely be members with open seats. So I recommend you hold the date and put a request out there. You may well find someone to fish with.bothellfisher wrote:That sounds like so much fun... Wish I had a boat or a friend with one. Someday I will but just not now.
Re: Lake Chelan Kokanee Get Together May 3-4, 2014
I will come if I have the boat and the $. I will know closer to that time if I have both.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

You get the boat and I, and I am sure others, will donate to the "Get Toni To Chelan Fund"

Re: Lake Chelan Kokanee Get Together May 3-4, 2014
I am very happy to announce that Anton Jones of Darrell and Dad's Family Guide Service is going to offer our members a 4 hour kokanee trip at half off per person for Saturday May 3rd, morning trip to help support our shore bound anglers at the 2nd Annual Lake Chelan Kokanee Event.
Your cost would be $67.50 plus tax.
You can contact Anton at http://www.darrellanddads.com/ to book your trip. Mention you are from WashingtonLakes.com to get the discounted rate. Space is limited so the sooner you contact him and book the better. If there is a strong enough interest he'll use both of his boats. This will be a party boat (sharing with other WL.com members) unless you have your own group of four, in which case you'll have the boat for your own.
This is a great deal. Anton has fished Lake Chelan for years and no one knows the lake better than him. If anyone can get you on 20"+ koks it would be Anton.
For those of you without a boat, don't miss this opportunity!

^ Thats a smoking deal for a limit of Chelan slabbers
Re: Lake Chelan Kokanee Get Together May 3-4, 2014
Yeah, you'll probably save that in gas not towing a boat out there.

I may have to make the trip up there as part of my big year. Have the burbot gone deep that time of year? I'd like to connect with that species in 2014.

Can you sleep on the boat? Or might it rain?
