Snohomish County/Lynnwood........... small park w/duck pond on 200th St.
I have passed by this park many times since my girlfriend lives in Lynnwood. The park is a small pond located on 200th St. in Lynnwood. I believe it is one street over from Scriber Lake. Anyone know if any fish exist in this little duck pond or if a person can fish there? I am also curious about knowing of any nearby waterways in the Lynnwood region that have spiny-rays to fish for.

There are large mouth bass in there. Supposedly there is suppose to be a nive 10 pounder in there. Lots of Milfoil though makes it extremely tough to fish. Water is also pretty dirty so I would really recommend CR.

It's full of bass. There are mostly dinks, but every once in a while you'll pull out a nice one. There are a bunch of neighborhood kids that fish there now, they're down there pretty much every day, slapping the water scaring the fish etc. though, so get there early in the morning before all the fish get spooked. I've done well fishing a weedless senko, bobber and worms and a vibrax spinner. Also had good luck on a topwater plug, wich is nice because they avoid the weeds.

RE:Snohomish County/Lynnwood........... small park w/duck pond on 200th St.
No name. I call it mini-park lake. It's kinda been my secret spot for a while, be nice to it! It's on scriber creek, so it's kinda a neat little place.

Wow! Some awesome replies so far on that little pond. I also noticed there is "back-water" area on the opposite side of the street......any fish in there or fishing access? It looks like some apartments or condos are around it. I'm pretty curious about these small waterways in the area. There seems to be a lot of "wetlands" and little creeks cutting through Lynnwood & Brier. Would anyone recommend Scriber Lake for catching perch or bluegill? Thanks!

Scriber lake has pumkin seed sunfish, bass and native cutthroat trout in it. It's a fun place to hang out with the turtles and nutria rats too. Never caught a perch from it, I go to log boom for them. If you look at the maps, which I do a lot, for some reason, Scriber creek connects all of those little ponds from 196th to well beyond 204th st before running over to lake washington. I think that's probably how the cutts got into scriber lake. I've fished several of them and frankly was surprised that there were bass there, I was hoping for carp, but was pleasantly surprised.

Thanks for the info!
I will probably try to fish Scriber a little bit this weekend. See what I can drag out of the water. I appreciate all the great info.

Finally fished Scriber on Saturday evening (13th). One other person was on the dock fishing. The whole lake was glass and quiet. Saw a hawk chasing a Kingfisher bird around the lake. Pretty funny to watch. I got only a few little nibbles with using a worm. Saw many bass chase it and then just swim away. I decided to cast out farther from the dock and reel in slow. Got a strike! Reeled in the fish and found it to be a trout of some sort (possibly cutthroat?) The trout was very silvery with a darker back. Fish was about 12"-13". Ended up packing up and heading home.

Hello all,
Stumbled upon this thread (and website, actually) completely randomly. I live less than 5 miles away from Scriber lake (and the others). I tried fishing there once without success and had assumed there wasn't much in there, but I'm thrilled to hear I was wrong.
Looking forward to having a place I can hit up after work.

I dropped by this evening to try the duck ponds. During a quick walk around I noticed that the pond(s) were pretty shallow as far out as I could see. I through in a topwater bait just to see if I got any naive bass (I didn't) and switched over to worm and bobber. I quickly got a very small LM bass (6" or so). I moved over to the park side of the pond and eventually got an 8" trout. I didn't get a positive identification on if it was a rainbow or cutthroat because I came off the hook and started flopping on the ground so I wanted to get it back home with as little damage as possible. Nice, clean looking trout though, much healthier than I was expecting. Right after that I hooked another largemouth, this time a little more respectable, although still small. Probably 10" or so and maybe 1/2 a pound?
So nothing enormous but I still had fun and look forward to investigating the rest of the ponds nearby. Photos below.
edit: Nearly forgot. Most surprising find of the night was small ferret living in the bushes near the businesses. Probably someone's pet that they got tired of since it seemed pretty tame.

Re: Snohomish County/Lynnwood........... small park w/duck p
my neighbors -- an older married couple -- were over the other day and said that this little pond is a place they like to go to sit and feed the ducks. They are not fishermen, but they said that some guy was walking out with a bass that was cloe to 2 feet long. An exaggeration for sure, but they said it was huge. Maybe that was the large bass of legend.
I am going to try it out this summer with my kid. Sounds promising.

Re: Snohomish County/Lynnwood........... small park w/duck p
I caught both small bass and a very small trout in there on a bobber and worm last year. I caught another small trout in Scriber on the same setup. Plastics might be worth considering for C&R purposes since there's no reason to keep anything out of these small, poluted bodies of water.
Re: Snohomish County/Lynnwood........... small park w/duck p
a friend and i stopped at the pond on 200th last night for a wee bit, that thing is so overtaken by duck poop, gross... saw some neighborhood kids pull out a dink size bass.. we then went over to Scriber after that to take a look. i threw a couple different crank baits and then a senko close to the the lilly pads for about an hour and caught nothing, didn't see any signs of life either.. scriber looks super fishy (and kinda of nasty), i'd like to give it a try another time. i have a friend that lives close.. it was a good excuse to try it out..
