About an average day at Grandy, though it really started slow. Could be because the water level was down about 1-2 feet from early this year. Started at the lower end where we usually have success and...

Spent some R&R at Lake Chelan with the wife, then my son and I ran over to Banks for one day. We rented a boat from Coulee Playland, and hit the areas of the lake that had been recommended on this sit...

Had a free afternoon and some sunshine so decided to give Goodwin a try for some SMB. Didn't quite work out the way I wanted. The wind picked up so it was very tough to drift over rocky points, and ar...

Pretty heavy fog all day. Launched at Everett at 7:15 and, after a slow trip to Mukilteo due to fog, had gear down at about 7:45. Fished the outgoing tide down past Shipwreck, then spent several hours...

Gotta give it a 4 since we had our chances! Gear down at 7:30 about a mile South of Muk. Did OK in this area last week, so decided to try it again. Basically followed the 100-150' contours with gear a...

My son and I went 3 for 3 yesterday. Launched at Everett about 7:15A. Dropped lines at Mukilteo just about 8:00 and headed south. At around 9:00 picked up one wild fish, then a hatchery fish at 10 or ...

This is for 9 and 8-2 since we started at Muk. No joy for us today. Waited until about 10AM figuring I'd work the bottom of the tide, through the slack and the tide change instead of fighting the curr...

Tried a new lake today. Pulled the boat up to Armstrong with my adult son and 8 yr. old grandson. WSDOT had the access road closed, but had set up flagmen who directed us down a 300' section of the Ce...

Well, technically the rating should only be a 2, but since the fish I caught was a PB Smallmouth at 3.35# it was well worth a 3 to me! Hit Lake Goodwin about 5:30pm and worked our way around the lake....

Couldn't dial in the Kokes today. Hit the water at 7:30 and picked up one in short order on the east side at 20'. We had two rods in the water until 11AM and didn't hit another fish...not even a bump....
