Northwest Fishing Reports

No, eastern Washington. But come on over bite is really good right now It is a little tougher this week with high water but they are still in there!! Walleye was good last weekend too

I think the bigger crappie will be the river crappie . Personally, I believe the snake river holds some records. The upper Snake above Wawawai where there are coves and backwater that are accessible by boat are really good to fish in the spring.

Go to the Fish and Wildlife website and find out where they are planting or recently planted trout. That is an easy way to get the juices flowing for the young ones!

Lol! I think you can say that for most places you go!

They just planted trout in one of them. Will be a zoo there this weekend. Pretty nice fish though!

I caught my first crappie on feb 20 last year on these ponds. They should start heating up. I know people are catching the big brooders right now and are doing very well. I use a slip bobber because the vegetation is a lot thicker this year so it is easier to work it with a slip bobber. With the wea...

Curious to know how the catfishing went up on the Palouse . I heard that the mouth of the Yakima river was hot this year for channel cats. Might be worth checking out next time if you wanted to get in some bottom fishing.

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks guys!

I am running a summer program for a local school district and one of the outdoor experiences we are going to teach some kiddos is campfire cooking. Does anyone have any favorite recipes they would share? Wanting to get families to think about quality time outdoors. Thanks in advance! Obviously gonna...

Good question! I don't know what kind of file it is from an I phone. I can try to crop it. It uploaded one picture that I posted but it wouldn't do the others.

Yeah, pond 4 is pretty good right now right before dark. I was out there for a little, but the cold wind drove me off!

So I have been wanting/trying to post pics from my iphone and I can see the pictures and as I click upload, it tries and tries and eventually will give me a photo invalid message. Am I doing something wrong? I have downloaded them to my laptop and it will give me the same message when I do it from t...

Finally was able to figure out the pictures. These were caught the last week of Feb.

Been hammerin' them! Caught thirteen all 11"-13" on Presidents Day. That was the first batch of the year for me. I tried to post pics from my I phone, but it wouldn't accept them. I will transfer them to my laptop and then try again. Have been catching them consistently since.

Hitting the sloughs today. Talked to an old timer yesterday at the sportsman warehouse and he said they were catching some huge slabs in the sloughs. Green and white minis were the trick. He wass heading out there today. Heard this from another guy at the I-82 ponds as well. Time to go check it out....

Three days of 60+ degree weather. Time to hit the ponds for some evening crappie. Anyone been out yet?

Oh my gosh! Good for her! I would freak out seeing that monster coming out of the ice. Never gonna look at the ones I catch the same!

Well... My son, my pride and joy, turns 16 in a few weeks and will be getting his driver's license. I am looking for a car for him. He loves cars from the 60's and 70's and I have been keeping my eyes on craigslist but if any of you members know someone that has an older car, I would love to hear ab...
