Short report on 2 lakes close to where I live..

Lake Aberdeen and Lake Sylvia....Wow, have never seen this few of people, on a opening day, in my 50+ years living in this area.

I knew because it was a "middle of the week opening" that the numbers of people might be lower than many years but compared to many years, it was "almost no one".

Parking was no problem, very few boats, and most people were spaced well apart.

Wish I had the time to go to Failor Lake and the ponds along the hiway in the Elma area....maybe someone else might report on these and any other lakes.

I don't know, but WDFW license sales have got to be at a "all time low"....

Stay safe.....






I plan on hitting both the Vance Creek Ponds, and the Shouweiller Ponds this weekend. Went scouting both ponds last Sunday and it didn't appear that the Vance Creek ponds had even been stocked yet. Didn't see any fish rolling, or cruising the banks. At the Shouweiler Ponds, saw plenty of bass and bluegills to keep things interesting if the fishing is horrible at Vance Creek.
