Spent the afternoon checking out Tapps. We fishied for four hours, started off jigging gort only one in about 15 feet of water. Switched to crankbaits caught on one an x-rap and the other on # 5 shad rap. in 5' of water. We also threw a muskie bucktail most of the day with only a follow from a bass. Water temp 57 . But is was absolutly beautiful and quiet on the lake. Very few other boats

A new company owns the lake, They said that due to low snow the lake is about 2 ft lower than usual. It is about 3 or 4ft up launch. If you go on tacoma news tribune and arcive story you can read details. Story was printed last thursday, I believe. Also, for general info google "1997 lake tapps survey". Its is a study done by the state on the lake, just be prepared for metric conversions and a hard read.
