Fished Spanaway for about an hour in the evening from a private dock. Caught 4 perch, 2 rock bass, and a 19 inch Rainbow. The Rainbow was a nice surprise.

Not a thing this Sunday morning, fished from 7:30 - 10:00 and only saw 3 caught and they were small. The lake was really dead today, should have gone to Silver or Tanwax.
