Had my cousins out for the first time in years and today we pursued the tri-fecta: trout, kokees, and walleye on the Columbia fishing downstream from Seven Bays.

We caught several limits worth of trout and brought home some 19-21" fish as well as some walleyes minus some hens we released including one my cousin caught just a few oz. under 10 lbs. We almost succeded in getting the tri-fecta as one cousin appeared to have on a small koke til it spit the hook 20' from the boat. We are looking to get out together more often as the fishing conditions and techinques definitely merit it.
The water is around 15-20' lower than it was last year at this time.

Tight lines everyone!

Awesome looking catch! I am hoping to get up there and fish that area, is there a place that lists which launches that are still useable with the water so low?

Nice report Jedi!

Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area website lists all ramps and lowest usable level. Seven Bays is usable to 1227' and I have personally launched there at 1229'. I will say this, when that low, it is a LONG way down the ramp to a single usable section of dock.

If this works look down towards bottom.
