Lake Fishing Mentors
Everyone has a lake that they just have a hard time being successful at. Being successful on a lake involves learning the lake.
The idea is to post on this thread that you know a lake(s) very well and have been successful in fishing it. Members on the site can contact you and ask your advise on how to be successful on a particular body of water. This can be in the form of a PM, phone call or meeting a person at a lake. Don't post your name on the thread if you are not willing to help out other members learn a lake.
Also, mention the types of fish you are going for (LMB, SMB, Trout, Crappie, etc.)

RE:Lake Fishing Mentors
Great idea! Certain people only fish for certain type of fish at the lakes. Would it be possible to post the type or types of fish the individual fishes for.

CURLEW in Ferry County !!
Many miles from home, but it is MY place to go and we've had much luck there fishing for LMB and big rainbows.
Let me know what you need to know and I'll help out as much as I can.
Also: we know the owners of Tiffany's Resort really well and they are quite helpful too.

RE:Lake Fishing Mentors
I fish many lakes but their are only a select few that I can claim to have exceptional
knowledge of and these would include Lake(s) Cushman,Tanwax,Lost(Mason County) and Kapowsin.
There may be more but these are the ones I frequent the most and seem to have more success

RE:Lake Fishing Mentors
Kitsap Peninsula, specifically Kitsap, Island and Buck Lakes. I have fished just about every body of water on the Peninsula including Mason county lakes and many lakes in Jefferson County as well.
My top lakes I spend a lot of time on are:
Panther (mason county)
Island
Kitsap
Buck
Long
I spend almost all my time targeting Largemouth Bass but I do not have a problem catching trout if the bassn is slow.
Hit me up PM is you need some help with locations or baits.

RE:Lake Fishing Mentors
American lake. I have caught the majority of my fish there. I cant help with bass because i am terrible at bass fishing, and i am struggling to catch my first bass, but i am an expert with the other fish in the lake!
