Northwest Fishing Reports

yep...actual first fish I ever caught on a fly was from within that log jam...just dipping a wooly I think, and got hit right away. little guy, but I was so pumped to have landed it. I then went over by some of the shallower areas, and cast out to some rocks...and a HUGE trout came up, looked at my ...

yeah...I am pretty sure what I saw spawning was a cut, or a rainbow. My wife couldn't understand why I was so excited to see two fish "complete the circle of life." This was up at lake serene on highway two...near the drainage of the lake..so there was some moving water. They were making redds and f...

natetreat!

great link to the WDFW site...seems they are still stocking them. Perfect info, and just what I was looking for!

Bodo, I have spoken with WDFW, and some people who were on those planting operations. golden trout were indeed stocked ALL over the U.S. until California banned the export of trout eggs/fingerlings from the waters that they are native from. However...many high lakes in Washington were stocked with g...

that is great, what is it called?

I can't wait to get back out there and drag some flies. Had great luck with a white leech pattern on lone lake, whidbey early january.

awesome. I saw greider was on one of those old lists.

So...basically there are fewere parking spots, the costs have increased, and it is now more difficult to back our boats up? That sounds like a sound park management program.

Hey, it can be as simple or complex as you want. I fly fish using a "trolling" method almost every time I am in a lake, and there is no reason you can't simply use a light line, and slow speed to do the same. With a fly rod, I just cast out, and slowly kick my pontoon boat around the lake. With a bo...

Any where I can still hike to get a chance at a golden trout?

Does anyone know if the boat ramps are open this weekend at kachess?

also any tips and hotspots for kokanee?

found this on the web..

Looks like what I saw.

Lamprey seems more like it, size wise and shape wise.

Gross. We waded through the water and stirred them all up, it was kind of freaky to be surrounded by them.

yeah...I don't think so. This was over 15 years ago...

I saw a show on those snakeheads on the chesapeake and potomac rivers out east...scary.

At the outflow of Lake Maraget, in King county, there used to be large numbers of what looked like eels, swimming in the water near the discharge pipe coming out of the dam. This was over 15 years ago that my friends and I saw them, in fact we went back several times to check them out. They were def...

Hey there, I just got to fish a beaver pond out in the snoqualamie valley i have been eyeing for years on the stossel creek. It produced dozens of small trout (less than 12 inches) over several hours on small dry flies and a tiny inline spinner bait. My question is, are there probably larger fish in...

bassboattech:

thanks for the "brainstorming idea"

I stabilize my fuel already.



can I clean a carb like this small one, or would it be wiser to just install a new one? any suggestions for where to find these?

I am looking for a good repair shop (read cheap) to get my small outboard running correctly. It fired up when I purchased it last year, but just idles poor now, and is difficult to start. I also have a 2hp that need some overhaul, that I have never had running. I would prefer shops in the eastside, ...

Does anyone know if this lake is "legal" to fish? Can you put a canoe or float tube in here? Any experiences fishing this lake?

Just after I logged off, I recalled flying with and seeing European air force "eurofighter typhoons" down at Nellis air force base in Vegas. It is a pure delta aircraft, and it might be flying north for an air show or to participate in an alaskan excercise.

just a thought.

A man's character is judged by all of his actions, not just the ones that are good.
