Fished the pens all day and caught big trips all day. One of the best days of fishing I've ever had. Smallest fish was 5 lb. biggest was 11 lb. Will definitely be going back.

Ok, I've got to get to this lake.. can you post some picks please so I can really get motivated to drive over there! If I have pictures I can convince my fishing buddy it's worth it!

WOW sounds like one hell of a great day of fishing. What part of the lake were you fishing and how far of the bottom were you putting the bait.

We were tied to the net pens just east of Coulee Dam. Hard to say how far off the bottom. We were using 1/4 ounce egg singers and letting the current take it for about the count of 30.

Hey Mike, thanks for the articles, I'm no t saying I don't believe cenel2, it's would be nice to have a current picture to convince my skeptical fishing buddy from down south! He thinks every one on here are liars, and when I tell him that you all catch muskie in Lake Tapps, he says it's a picture of a fish from a lake somewhere in the midwest...or it's the same fish over and over again and guys keep catching it! LOL I believe the fellas though. I'm from here and I know about our fisheries. Keep up the good work!

No, please do not post pictures of the giants caught at this body of water. NO, DON'T DO IT.

As of now, people don't believe what they read, you know, too good to be true. It is hard enough to find a camping spot during peak periods, the State is not planing on enlarging the state camping grounds, well, we have enough fishermen.........

Don't do it.

Ya Rufus is a kick in the shorts when its hot.I like to make a weekend of it and spend a day fishing for Macks at Chelan while I'm up that way too.Just remember if you use bait at Rufus you have to stop fishing at 2 fish.

I see the reminder was posted - fishing with bait requires you stop when reaching your limit, fish kept or not. Thanks.
