well that sounds good to me. I am going back down to Duck Lake this weekend but it looks a though threre is going to be a cold front coming in during the time i am going to be down there. But i might be able to get some large mouth or find a school of crappie and if all else fails then i will troll up some bruser trout. so i hope that I can find some fish. what do you have planed.
I've been very busy at my recording studio as of late and I'm opening a nightclub on Alki Beach in three weeks so I've had zero time to get ready for the fishing season. I'm still trying to figure out what new rods and reels I want to order and new lures I'd like to try out this year. I've heard reports that the crappies are biting well up the Powder River arm of Brownlee.
Looking for a used fishing boat is starting to look a lot harder then it was the last time I bought one, not very many quality used boats up for sale right now. I hope that changes before the spawn starts. I'd hate to not have a rig until July :D.
I had my CD Release party @
Hells Kitchen Saturday!!!
SOLD OUT BABY!!!!!
Pretty Crazy!

I'll be releasing my first album on July 4th, followed up by to more of our lables artist on July20th and August 10th.
anyone fish silver lake in cowlitz during the spring or earlyer, i have fished it in november and did well and am planing to go down at the end of march or the first weekend of april.
That's the perfect time to nail a big bass. I have pictures of 7lb 4oz hog I pulled out of there about three years ago. You want to fish the NW section of the lake in early spring. The hogs spawn near the creek west of the hotel. Crappie can be caught in the middle of all the creeks.Quote:

Do you know anything about the crappie or bass in lake stevens?
Never tried Stevens, I always get stuck over at Cassidy when I'm up that way :D.Quote:

Those bass have seen damn there every lure known to man. It can be tuff to catch a decent bass after the spawn. You'll have to fish the beds during spawn to target a monster. Sometimes you'll sit on top of the bed and pitch the lure right into it for an hour or more before one will take it. The secret to catching them after the spawn is to only fish were wood and weeds meet or out in the mid-lake underwater brush. Large Jig-n-Pigs and Perch colored crankbaits are the way to go. You can clean up on bass if you toss cranks around the points of pad fields.Quote:

I think it's 8 knots but I'm not sure. It's small enough that you can get around with a decent trolling motor with no problems. Cassidy, Blueberry, Kapowsin, and back in the sand dunes of Potholes are the only lakes I've seen the crappie surface feeding. They go nuts at Blueberry for about two weeks at the begining of fall. Up at Kapowsin, the blugills and crappies school up and feed on the surface from mid-August to late Sept. Easy pickings if you like to flyfish.Quote:

And i live 15 min. from the lounch on the ship cannal, so one day I will be able to figure them out eventualy.
yeah i sould have keept mine more shut. But it is not just the location in the canal. I remember when i went down there i turned a corner and there were 17 boats not catching anything, I went in with a different patteren an caught 4 crappie in about a half hour of work.
You'll figure them out sooner than you think. Once you find them you'll see that they never stray to far away from the same areas. A school might stay in the same 200 yard area for about 9 of the twelve months if there's a flat and a deep rock pile or drop-off near it. In Union they pretty much do the same thing every night of the year, feed under the dock lights at night, then head under the docks or to a near by deep-water rock structure.
The perch do the same thing only difference is that they tend to stay near the docks that are located in water 30' deep or more (but the dock must be lit at night). There's one place in the south end of the lake were you can catch all perch you want at night from November to April. Once you figure them out they will be in the exact same places every year.
Lake Cassidy has a 10 horse limit. I think that is what it said last time I was there.I caught some nice bass last time i was there too.
thanks bassman i guess i am outa luck unless i just use my trolling motor which is fine as long as i catch some fish.
A trolling motor will push you all over that lake.
