Ran solo today and didn't take any pic's but it was a good day above Keller Ferry. Was kind of a C&R day until the second badly hooked kok. Release 8 or 10 before keeping my last one and done by 8:30. As I was pulling out I saw the guy I talked to at the boat ramp so I pulled up beside him and asked how he was doing. He hadn't caught any so I invited him onboard. He beached his boat and we caught him a walleye about 20"es and released one 17" kok and kept 2 in the 20" range for him. Was done by 10.
Down riggers at 10 to 12' with the pink hootchies and corn caught them all.
Ken if you read this call my number sometime. I forgot to get your number so I can't call you to go out with me again.

Is the boat launch on state route 21?

Look at www.nps.gov/laro/planyourvisit/maps.htm that will have the roads and all the boat launch locations. With the lake at 1256' today and dropping, a LOT of launches are high and dry so you'll have to poke around their website to get the minimum launch elevations and call 1-800-824-4916 to check the lake levels before you head out. That way you won't end up disappointed... Or stuck in the mud... When you get out there.
This site has the launch levels http://www.gcdvisitor.com/boat-launch-accessibility-on-lake-roosevelt/
Keller Ferry is off of hwy 21. In Google maps, it's at about 45900 WA-21, Wilbur, WA 99185.

Boat ramp is fine at Keller launch. Main dock is out but have small one usable. If you need the dock to launch only one at a time though. Still on cement and will be unless they change their minds and drop it more than 1254.

Go thru Wilbur and turn on 174 heading to Dam. Go about 1/2 mile turn right on 21.

Any ideas where I can pick up some maggots? We live about a half hour north of the Tri City's. I haven't been able to find them anywhere.

I've used Berkley Gulp maggots on occasion and I can't tell a difference in catch rate between them and the real thing. Gulp maggots are much easier to work with IMO and stay on the hook a lot longer.
