Foolishly thinking that because it was hot the week before it’d be hot today, I took my buddy to fish Mossyrock Dam. Same set up as last week, pretty much the same weather, virtually the same spot, an...

We didn't fish, but just wanted to make a run out to soak the dog and check the lake level. I heard that it was way low so wanted to see for myself. It appears that the level is remaining high enough ...

Man that boat launch is no joke. It was closed to motorized boats but we were allowed to walk kayaks up/down. It's a steep 1/10 of a mile trek though. We were after landlocked coho salmon and some of ...

Got on the water at 11am, fished the dam for a few but was not marking any fish. Moved East a couple miles and started getting consistent hits at 25-35’. I’d say we lost a dozen or so fish before we g...
