i live near the lake so im there often and ive caught crappie they are hard to come by now since there numbers have decreased a lot but there pumpkinseed that are easy to get i was also at the lake today and me and my friend both caught a trout within 5 minutes then left an hour later since it was to hard to fish

I HEARD BOTTOM-WALKERS WORK UP THERE JOE!ha! MY ATTEMPT AT DRY HUMOR!

What Lake Stevens needs, what Lake McMurray needs, what Lake Goodwin needs are a bunch of Walleyes. Anyone looking for some last minute Christmas ideas for me, there ya go.

Mike...You and the CAPS LOCK. What is with that.

Troutman, I was doing everything in my power not to catch trout. I know they are everywhere but they weren't interested in my jigs and I wasn't interested in caring about it. It was still fun, lab had a good time. Daughter was ready to go but then at last minute decided to go play with her friends vice fishing in the weather. She can't be my child. Ha.

I too live just across the street from Lake Stevens, and it has been pretty hit and miss as of late on trout. I usually do fairly decent out there, but my last trip was my first time getting skunked there this season. I feel your pain brother!!!!! I ended up hitting Lake Martha (not Martha Lake) during the snowstorm and getting one little fattie and will definitely go back there, I like those little, quiet lakes. At Stevens, trolling seems to be the way to go for trout, a worm down to the bottom around thirty'ish feet seems to do well for perch which can be of decent size and quantity out there. Wish I wasn't workin on my day off tomorrow, I'd be out somewhere fishin, that's for sure!

When are you going to show me where BIG crappie are at Lake Cassidy. They have to be in there don't they?

I'd love to show you the big Crappie in Cassidy, however, I usually only average eight inchers out there. But when they're hittin, it can be non-stop. You're right though, the bigguns gotta be out there; I wonder if that toxic algae bloom cleared up I saw when I was there last in the end of October..? It was real nasty, real bright green, covering the whole lake. I had re-string the reel I used out there, and had to wash the whole thing; I really didn't wanna be the one to spread that nasty crap.

Its hard to attempt Dry Humor when everything including my britches are soaked 8 feet under........

What I need is dry weather and a lake that has fish in it.
