Northwest Fishing Reports

awesome! thanks for the follow up. perhaps we learned a little from you too!

my mix-up- got the Hewes mixed up, didn't catch there was 2 different ones. btw i think both you guys put out great reports, and appear to practice excellent ethics when it comes to fishing law and any error therein was truly a mistake

So, Hewesfisher, you knew that you can only have 2 day limit from your investigation into this subject 5 years ago, and then went to Banks and did the wrong thing anyway?? im not trying to Troll here, just make sense of this. Im pretty sure I read somewhere that "Processing" includes vacuum seal, da...

By "processing" your catch by cleaning and Vacuum sealing, Dating, and freezing it, I believe you are allowed to have more in your possession, if you had 4 days limit in your cooler you would be violating the law. I am not the law, but pretty sure that is how it works

Where in the MW are you going? I am getting ready to move to NW Iowa, my goal to get into Esox angling

Westport Charters! been out with them several times, and you can book the whole boat if you have enough people. Capt Dwight on the Tornado is a great guy. I

I was aware of this, and thought I had refilled the fields that get emptied out. apparently I did not. Sounds like this is a bug that is in the works to get fixed. Thanks all for the help

mine is a Moke N Rill, works great

Looks like i am still not doing it right. I was trolling on a sunny day using a dodger with wedding ring, color: yellow, air temp: 70-75

I've never fished this lake, but have been around muskie, and i have found that sticking with the bass gear, and using 30# mono leader instead of wire, helps a lot with the breakoffs from muskie and improves the bass bites.

I like my Okuma SST kokanee rod, of course it's not too late! get out there

if it were like an alpine lake, where maybe the boat had to be brought in, yes i would use it, and be kind to it. If they left the boat where it was in view, and obvious no one around, then i think they left it to be used. just a boat on the shore at public beach, no, they left it there with confide...

noticed on my most recent report, none of the info as far as tackle, color, temps showed up. Is there something im not doing right?

Evergreen is a good lake for boat fishing if you are looking for walleye. I have caught bass and walleye from shore, but I wouldn't recommend it. Roosevelt may be your better choice, or even Sun Lakes would be an excellent choice too

There is a lot of information here about Kokanee fishing. and all the info about terminal gear is here as well. Looking at reports will help get you going. Most guys do troll, Toni @ wannafishalure is about the only one still fishing and reporting about it. I can't say anything about lakes in your a...

RE: Walleye from the bank- in the Midwest we used to use worm under bobber at night to catch walleye from shore. I have also caught them shore using rooster tails along rocky shorelines in the evening

I usually run 1 dodgers in tandem with about 12" leader between them, something I picked up from General Herzog. it works

I agree with Lingking, I believe there is something to having more rods out, it increases odds and gets your presentation to different depths.

My engine is an early 80's 2 stroke, the "brain" had something to do with the coils, it certainly isn't a computer. As far as Idle screw, from my experience, all the way in then 1 and a half turn out will get you close to the correct setting. It does sound like may be a coil issue. One of the first ...
