I just went on the internet and looked at forks,wa. is this place far from the cowlitz river? I fish only the cowlitz right now and a couple local lakes. All the lakes dont have any bass worth fishing for. The cowlitz river has alot of steelhead trout to catch. Each time I go I see at least 5 of these bright fish caught and ever since i caught mine i am in love with them. They taste so good.
