6/15/2010 10:02:00 AMDid you keep the dinks from Whitman? Is this the tiny little lake near (not IN) Stielacoom park?

6/15/2010 11:03:00 AMIs there a boat launch on this lake? I've driven around it before, but didn't see a boat launch.

6/15/2010 11:37:00 AM@ procaster, louise is not close to whitman, but we went there because we pretty much struck out at whitman.. @ bionic_one, no we did not keep the dinks, we catch and release :) and yes it is the small lake close to steilacoom park! @ f1sh1nf00l, yes there is a boat launch, but it's a very small one and it's the only public access. i believe it's off of 104th st and lake louise drive.

6/15/2010 11:51:00 AMi'm not sure about gas motors, just judging by how small the lake is, i would guess no. we just used a trolling motor on a 10 foot livingston and it got us around the lake fine.

6/15/2010 1:34:00 PMDuring really warm days the place is covered in Jet Skis. The public launch is VERY VERY small, if you drive faster than 5mph, you won't see it. Launch is right in the middle of this map link (copy and paste it) http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&q=Steilacoom,+Pierce,+Washington&sll=47.449074,-124.186792&sspn=0.007546,0.013754&gl=us&ie=UTF8&cd=1&geocode=FRzBzwIdfTux-A&split=0&hq=&hnear=Steilacoom,+Pierce,+Washington&ll=47.16294,-122.565445&spn=0.001897,0.003439&t=k&z=18
