Took a break from musky fishing and fished a few of the alpine lakes in the Snohomish county area with the family,spent several days fishing Coal and neighboring lakes. Primary objective was to enjoy the views and fishing was secondary. However,fishing ended up be pretty excellent with a variety of tackle options from small Kastmaster spoons and various spinners. Caught several different trout species,eastern brooks,rainbows and cutts but mainly brookies. We had intended on keeping a couple for the campfire dinner but I suppose I just got lazy and released them all. Nothing over 8 inches but no complaints. Pretty fish and even better water clarity and views. Also came across mountain lion tracks(woo hoo) It also looks like the road washed out again recently. Fresh dirt and some boulders scattered around. Took some pictures but need to pull them off the camera. An excellent family outing....and gorgeous country.
