We had a very successful Black Friday Opener! Here is a summary of my counts:

Battle Ground Lake: 44 anglers with 66 rainbows
Klineline Pond: 95 anglers with 120 rainbows
Kress Lake: 51 anglers with 77 rainbows
South Lewis County Park Pond: 25 anglers with 37 rainbows
Ft. Borst Park Pond: 5 anglers with 16 rainbows

Reminder for Ft. Borst Park Pond - there is no longer an age restriction on this lake. It is open to ALL anglers!

There are a lot of fish out there so come on out to fish!

The focus is pretty much trout right now.

The popular bait seems to be neon powerpaits or plain ol juicy worms!

Where are the trout lakes in King or Pierce County? I have not fished any trout since I moved here in July. Could use some ideas of where to go.
