Are we losing interest in this thread? Here's a pic from Eastern WA. Nice place to fish without competition.

EASY!!!

Since I learned how to fly fish on that lake, I'll pass on this one Joe.[wink]

Thanks, I'll pass on the photo post,,,, i was admiring the wooldrige also with that semi hardtop thing going on,,,, I'd like to get a closer look at it to see how that top was designed.

Anything I throw out here on the new lake location, is simply a guess: Bead Lake

Close, but no cigar.

Doesn't seem to be much interest so I'm dropping out of the competitions here. The lake is Marshall Lake in Pend O'reille county. Somebody else post.

hey Lotech, LOL I could have guessed again.... I picked Bead due to the topo map.

purely a guess on this one Matt: Lake Samammish

below is Pierre, north of Kettle Falls, 3 weeks ago, the fish froze solid really quick.... "cuttsicles" LOL

Oops! I didn't make it back in here yesterday. Sorry about that. Here's a pic out of WALakes archives, someone elses daughters but a lake that I used to hit religiously for the March 1st opener. I considered it the best March 1st opening lake about a decade ago(15 yrs). Those are the hints, hope you enjoy!

so about 12 hrs has gone by, another hint or two, last I checked, it isn't a Mar 1 opener lake now and the fishing isn't hot any more. LOL and the biggy to keep this moving,: it's part of the Seep Lakes.

nope, here's a hint: good parking lot, about a half mile trek to upper lake from parking lot, I've never caught anything but trout in both lakes, larger trout in upper lake, generally more trout in lower lake, lower lake has a boat ramp. I thought it used to be super popular 20, 15 & even 10 years ago. I thought it would be a quick easy one to identify. It switched to an April 1 opener about 2003? and I haven't been back.

One of my favorites - Upper Hampton

Close enough and good job! This pic is of Lower Hampton, based on my recollection, it's taken from the south shore looking to the north. I used to love fishing both of those lakes, boat or shore. Your turn Gringo!

OK, Here you go.. Big lake, popular for smallies, but there are frog hungry largies to be had too, and if you get there early morning a little wildlife to be seen as well.

No overnight guesses eh? Ok - it is a westside lake that has been pretty popular lately (but not for bass).

No morning guesses either? On summer weekends, looking at the sky over the deer you would probably see RC airplanes buzzing about.
