Halfmoon Lake (26 acres) and Morgan Lake (35 acres): Located between 5 and 6 miles northwest of Othello, both lakes are stocked with trout fingerlings, but survival has been poor. Anglers should not expect good fishing this year. Both lakes can be accessed via a rough boat launch on Halfmoon Lake.

At one time the Hamptons were the hottest lakes in the Seep Lakes group. Traditionally the Hamptons were part of the March first opener. The State placed them on the April first opener for 2003. The largest fish have come from Upper Hampton, with the majority of the fish coming in from Lower. Upper is a walk in lake, about a half mile hike. Lower has a boat ramp suitable for shallow draft boats and a large parking lot. No camping or overnight parking is allowed. Power bait has been king on both of these lakes but I like to troll so I can release the smaller ones.

Hancock Lake (236 acres): Located eight miles northeast of North Bend, Hancock has a single small dirt access for car-toppers or light trailers at its northwest corner. Shoreline access is available, but is generally poor. The lake is accessible from several routes on Weyerhaeuser's Snoqualmie Tree Farm. Vehicular access requires purchase of an annual access permit (call 1-800-433-3911). Late season closures may be in effect due to fire danger. Like nearby Calligan Lake, Hancock offers an unusual assortment of rainbow, cutthroat and eastern brook trout, all of wild origin. All tributary streams and the upper third of the outlet are closed to fishing.
