10/20/2016 8:37:00 PMNo word on the walleye (or any other fish). The only party I spoke with was a crew of duck hunters who were pulling out when I launched my boat.
When I arrived (around 11:30am), there were at least six boats on the water: Two were focused in a pocket north of the state park and adjacent to the dunes. One was out in the middle (appeared to be stationary), and, three were over on the east shoreline. Two of these three appeared to be trolling north and south along that eastern shore. But, I never saw anyone playing a fish, or grabbing a net, in any of these boats.
By early afternoon, most of them had cleared out. (My truck was the only rig in the parking lot when I called it a day.)

10/21/2016 6:05:00 AMI'm from the West side also bit have relatives over in central and eastern wa. From what I've heard from them the fishing has been tough for walleye this season. Since the spring no real big numbers of fish caught. Even by the guides. Banks lake though I heard was doing a little better and so was Moses lake but still not as great as recent years

10/21/2016 7:30:00 AMNice report Donn. I'm really looking forward to spending more time with my selection of OG lures at Roosevelt next week. I'm happy to hear you'll be rigging some of the saltwater versions for freshwater. Big trout chase big lures. I like the newer colors too. ;-)
