Got over to Lake Wenatchee early, but not early enough I guess. Waited in line for quite a while, but it was worth it. The fishing was great with constant action. Hopefully the quota isn't reached by Friday of this week. Get over there on a week day. Park Ranger said it is a lot less crowded. Small pink squid with two red hooks on a 12 inch leader behind an 0 flasher seemed to be the ticket. Make sure those barbs are pinched well and that you have your Columbia River endorsement. You will get checked! Weather was perfect. Not hard to find the fish. Follow the boats.

Hey two quick questions, from the boat launch how far is the run and also can you share what depth fish were holding? Thanks a ton!

Got to go from the State Park end to the other end. Not sure of the mileage. I picked up fish from 20 feet down to 40 after it started getting brighter out. We lost a ton though. Got to keep the pressure on them and a tight drag. Get them up to the boat as fast as you can or they will pop off. Don't forget a knotless net. It's the rule. I called the Gamey for the area and asked about the hook rule. You are allowed up to three single hooks on your line. Barbs must be pinched and they must be single hooks. The way it was written in the news release I thought was sort of confusing. Have fun fishing! God doesn't count that time against you!
