Gentlemen, here's a friendly reminder, just 2 more weeks til the March 1st opener on Amber and Coffeepot Lakes in eastern WA. These restrictive reg lakes are phenomenal trout fisheries and yield some of the largest trout you'll see from scabland lakes. Both give up lots of fish in the 16-20" range and Amber sees an occasional triploid at or pushing 24". Amber also has cutts that can exceed 16". If fly fishing, leave your 3 or 4-weight at home unless you plan on playing them to death.....these fish are the strongest and most acrobatic in eastern WA. Coffeepot's are downright ornery, and Amber's try hard to reach that level of madness! Land them as quick as possible and release them quicker, both the fish and other anglers will appreciate it. Last year I caught dozens of fish that had 4, 5 and 6 hook marks in their mouth, yet they kept coming! C-ya there and good luck.
