RE:greetings from the sunny las vegas desert
I saw on the news this last year that the water level is becoming a big concern. There is a marina on the lake where the owners have moved it three times. They said that if they had to move it again, they would be closing because they can't afford to do it again. This may be the marina. that looks ...

RE:Lake Mead Stripers?
And be sure to enjoy your catch. Meaning, take as many as you can (I believe up to 10 no size limit). They are top predators and thrive down there. Thinning them out will only help the fishery. One more thing, they love moving water. fishnislife there is NO LIMIT on stripers up to 20 inches and 20 ...

RE:flat fish in Grays harbor
I have been up and fished the Puget sound 6-7 times and never had a problem catching them. Worms, herring, anchovies, smelt, squid and everything else was swallowed up everywhere we went.
