Northwest Fishing Reports

Decision has been made! We are heading to Chelan. Have never fished there so the excitement level is high. One problem that needs input though. We have no downriggers. How much of a problem does this pose? And any tips on good spots on the lake to fish would be more than welcome. Thanks!

South King County. Travel is not an issue.

Howdy! The missus and I have a weeks vacation in October and are looking for fishing and camping suggestions. We have a 14' Lund and prefer to chase trout or kokanee. We are seasoned campers and not afraid of rain but, dry weather is more comfy. Thanks for your input!

I'm heading to Curlew Lake for a 9 day fishing excursion and would love to hear others techniques, tips, stories and more. Camping at the state park. Planning side trips to Ferry, Swan, Long, Fish, Beth Lakes and more. Might even jump over to Okanagan County as well. Will be there April 23 -30.

Trout. The bigger the better! And also with camping at lake or nearby.

My wife and I just bought a small boat and electric motor and are looking for new, beautiful and productive lakes. We love to camp and are hoping to find small lakes like Takhlakh Lake, which we just spent 4 days at and thoroughly enjoyed.
