Mason Lake will be getting a new boat ramp and parking area at the old public launch. I have caught some decent kokanee in 10" to 14" range using down riggers but this was 20 years ago. Also there was a good run of sivers that went up the creek but there is a old cuvert under the railroad tracks on Green Diamond property that is in bad condition, fish had a very hard time getting up into the culvert which made it perfect for all the snaggers to slaughter the fish. Green Diamond roads are now gated, Don't know what it is like now. How about a run of sockeye into Mason Lake or Isabell lake both have large streams in and out and how about planting steelhead or bringing back the chums into Godsbrough creek where they used to be so thick it was hard to fish for the steelhead. Its the same all over Mason and Grays Harbour county beatiful water and prime spawning grounds but not many fish. We are never going to wild fish back into the smaller streams with all the nets, it doesen't matter who stes them, nets are killers of all fish. With no fish plants in small streams they will soon be dead except for a few resident fish. I know there must be property owners with small clean streams that would be willing to have a little fish hatchery on there property, these would help put fish runs back into the main river system. Too many ot these smaller streams are going down hill fast.
Also the state record SQUAW fish was caught out of Mason lake.
