Spent the last week at Alder Lake searching for Crappie. Alder is an amazing lake and I enjoyed the great weather we had. I only managed to boat one fish (Kokanee). I was really focused on the Crappie. I know they are there but I couldn't figure out the bite. Fished the main channels and the flats looking for staging crappie. Unfortunately, the water level just came way up in the last three weeks and I think that threw the bite off. On the other hand, the Kokanee fishing must be great. They were jumping all over the place. Stayed the week in the campground at Alder Lake Park, thoroughly enjoyed it and its a great facility.
