Northwest Fishing Reports

Finally jumping in....well, in April 2022 at least lol. Parameters for this round will be:

Largemouth 5lbs minimum
OR
Smallmouth 4lbs minimum

I have already counted the Counties I have met the parameters in and that list totals 11:

Whatcom County
Skagit County
Snohomish County
King County
Lewis County
Grant County
Adams County
Lincoln County
Spokane County
Stevens County
Pend Orielle County

That leaves 28 Counties on the board! I am not even sure some of these Counties have the fisheries to support this Quest? I'm going to enjoy myself more this time, so no time limit. I am still going to subscribe to moving on once the fish is caught, but will have no problem staying in an area for multiple days. It could honestly take more than a year or two to "complete"! Can't even put into words how much I am looking forward to it though! I have missed the road and the adventure tremendously. Not to mention, my personal and professional life the past two years has been a bit removed from enjoyable.

Already announced it on YouTube. Still spitballing the overall gameplan? I will most likely start on the West side this time. I've thought about linking up with other Washington YouTube anglers for parts of it? Not sure how it's all going to play out, but then again, that's half the fun!

Good luck, should be possible.

Good luck! I am trying the same thing but I am not as restrictive as you. I am going for any fish, no matter what size, in each county. So far I have 21 counties done and will be hitting 3 counties in Eastern WA later this month. I would only have 2 counties if I used your parameters.

He did it that way last time/year. He is now just upping the challenge. :-)

That's awesome! Enjoy every minute of it. When I did it in 2018, I was tired but also bummed it was over. Beautiful places, great fishing (sometimes). Discovered so many lakes! Keep us posted!

Wow, that's quite a list!

This was back in 2018.
New round, New rules
