WDFW planting some jumbo's in 3 Skagit Lakes
Just read that Campbell, Clear Lake, and Grandy are each getting some 2-4 pound trout planted for this weekend. I was thinking of poking around on Cranberry for some browns, might have to check out Campbell instead.

Thanks for posting the link. I saw it on their facebook as well, but I'll be darned if I can't find it on their web page as well.

Re: WDFW planting some jumbo's in 3 Skagit Lakes
out of the three lakes, what is the one that would be LESS wind blown? I want to head out and have a shot at them Saturday, but the weather report calls for lots of wind.
Re: WDFW planting some jumbo's in 3 Skagit Lakes
Campbell can definitely get pretty choppy. I would guess that Grandy would be likely to have less wind due to the tree cover. Then again it's closer to the mountains which tends to help funnel winds.

Re: WDFW planting some jumbo's in 3 Skagit Lakes
Grandy would be the least at risk at wind.. it does get lil choppy but not like campbell or clear.. Ive been out on clear lk in 3 ft waves.. not very good conditions for a small lk boat.. nice thing is these fish are freshly planted so you should have a decent chance from shore as they havent fully scattered

We would like to meet other responsible fishermen (w/a boat) who fish Baker lake or Skagit lakes or Marine Area 8-2 on a regular basis. It's me and a friend. We have our own gear and can chip in reasonably or provide a full lunch and snacks. Pleasant personality, clean background. Please be okay with a respectful smoker. Thanks.
