Northwest Fishing Reports

Ok, well, my wifes B-day is the 11th next week and Im taking the day off and we are going to tapps. the down side, i have never been there lol I live about 5 miles from the state launch. So since i dont know anything about the lake, iam looking for imput of any kind.ive been on google earth i dont know how many times and holy moly theres point everywhere!!!! but i have seen all the nasty stumps when the water is down but like i said, just looking for any suggestions/imput.

I dont know the lake all that well, but I know this. The stumps out in front of the rip rap levies hold fish. You can find those on the map. Also fish the many rocky points that you will find between the levies. This time of year, stump fields in shallower water should have fish looking for bedding spots. Thats about all I know about that. I might hit Tapps next weekend myself. Good lake, and you never know what's gonna hit your lure....

Cool. im figuring of judt dropping the trolling motor and heading south from the boat launch, the stat launch that is. so we will see.

scratch this trip.... apperantly, yesterday while i was down stairs with the fella's, the miss's made plans with the other ladies too get there nails done on her b-day and some how i cant go fishin????? so ill be felling trees instead... need to stock up on firewood anyway.... :(

Just a note, Its a Pierce County Park/Launch at the North end. No State launches.

We like getting off of the main body of the lake. Back into the coves, around the bridges, and look for the developing weed beds.
