This time Edge may have it. It does look like Mercedes Island in the back with I90 in it. Between 520 and I90 looking south.

Don't have to name the spot on the water so edge540 got it. Lake Washington, sockeye season several years back, east shore, south of Hwy 520 bridge (Bill Gates' turf). Although, as I look at the picture it may not be oriented to that spot.

I thought the heavy downrigger rod would fool a few people.

I knew I lost because of the body of water...... 520 looked so far away I guessed a little too far south of location, I saw the sweatshirt, lighting color and the sun angle and misjudged the time of year/day. Too much time on my hands! LOL

Well that was quick. Good eye. I am assuming that Haystack and the rock outcrop gave it away. You're up.

Yea, I drive by that stack nearly every day from June to February, it's hard to forget. Here's a neat one, great place for surf perch if you don't mind the muddy hike.
