Fished Park lake for the last time due to the Rotenone pesticide thats going to happen soon. Caught some giant bass outta here the last few years. Makes my stomach churn that all those beautiful fish will die. Have loads of pictures of some great bass I have caught outta here and blue lake over the years. I could go on and on about the rotenone situation. Everybody has the own opinions. Some pictures are from earlier this spring. And the one in my boat from yesterday. Park closes October 28. R.I.P Park and Blue. All fish C&R!! Hope for survivors!!

Why do they keep killing off these two Lakes? I love fishing Blue Lake I've got some big smallmouth out of there. Sad.

Terrible waste. Blue Lake holds 20+ inch Browns and Bows. Monster Smallies, great Perch fishing and the state will kill it so people catch stringers of 9 to 12" Trout. Don't worry, some of the locals will do a little stocking of their own. Banks lake is right next door.

Costs no money to leave the spiney Ray fish in there and a lot to raise all those trout and stock them in the lake. Nice bass shame to kill them off but I guess they want 10" trout. Boring

That's sad. Those are great looking bass. It's too bad WDFW won't focus on managing mixed species lakes. We have some great mixed species lakes here in Spokane County, Liberty and Long (Lake Spokane on this website) come to mind. There's really something for everyone at places like that. In fact if I was hoping to catch a trout over 13" those lakes (and Medical...not West Medical) would be my top choices even with strong bass populations.

Seems like too many lakes they just want to plant rainbows that are barely big enough to swallow a PowerEgg and kill everything else. I get that the meat fishermen buy licenses too, but your issue is lack of bank access on most of those lakes (around here) rather than competing species. Just my humble opinion.
