Man; this "FIns 'n Feathers" forum sure needs more action. Glad to see Stonefish tangling with some Coho this year. He keeps killing me with his text messages....

Now for the boring fly fishing report:

My family wanted to see a little dryer weather for the weekend, and didn't want to travel far. So we went over and camped over at Vantage, Wanapum State Park. The crazy salmon fishers were packing the Columbian near the dam. My son and I went over and fished a desert lake for trout.

This was the first time for him in a kick boat. Other than crashing into the cat tails cuz he said he couldn't turn, and the seat that went flat, every thing went OK. Oh, and no fish, well, just one right off the bat, but, went dead after that. Weather was lousy, rainy and cold. But, we had a good time.

Spring and Fall are great times to be in Eastern Washington:


Boats stacked two high


Robert landing a monster weed


Many will recognize this view


I love the panorama mode on my camera...

Lenice?

I love that area.


This is one of my favorite photos. My BBF Rawleigh at Nunally. He's gone now and I don't fish it any more.

Yes, Lenice.

He's got a set of headphones on. Listening to a little music while fishing?

Yep. Probably Janis Joplin or Bob Dylan.

Sam,
Good pics. Glad you and Robert were able to get out.
Nice flat water. You must not have mentioned the "w" word while on the lake.

Any day on Lenice, Merry, or Nunnally without wind is a good day...the fish are just an added bonus!

Fish on...

I miss Lenice...Funniest thing I ever saw over there was some guy trying to kick paddle his float tube faster than the snake that was swimming towards him. He won the race.

Never fished Merry. I know it's part of the chain of lakes.

Nice report. I was in Wenatchee over the weekend. Chilly, but beautiful. Going over the Cascades once in a while is a good thing.

They were made for Wilderness Access, who is no longer in business.

Similar in design to the WaterMater, but has a inflatable seat instead of a wood seat platform. I think the same boat is sold by Waterstrider now.
