This does present a dilemma for some viewers. There are many members that just haven't taken pictures when they went fishing. If they have not taken any photos of lakes, they can not post the next photo. Therefore, I suggest that the Washingtonlakes.com lake photo library be available for people to copy and paste on the thread. I have taken dozens of lake photos and all of them are on the site.
Also, if you have taken lake or river photos and they are NOT in the WL.com lake photo library, post them in the game and by all means send them to Mike so that he can add them to the library.
Great game. It will help educate the viewers and help build up the lake photo library.[thumbup]

In keeping with the 24 hour winners cut off for posting and in the interest of keeping the game moving.

Here's one that's a little tougher.

And a clue. Good luck!

Sorry folks, I worked a really long day and never got back to the computer. Unfortunatly I have very few lake pics, so I can't post the pics, But can I still guess....Sure I can!!

I'm guessing Fish lake (the ice rod was a good touch)

hmm, could be most any eastern WA winter lake. It would be cool if you also had the same picture only summer. OK, you did post the clue so I "guess" it's not cheating - Rat lake.

Here's one for everyone:
