[fishinkid]

Guess i can add something now. Love all types of fishing especialy fly fishing though. my spin gear hasnt seen much action any more. it might be a good thing. i blew out a reel all most every year. i always seem to hook into a fish to big for my gear. Best example 15 lb carp (snagged no clue how) on 4lb line. So fish on.

RainbowHunter here to say hello!

My real name is Chris. I love fishing for rainbows (as if the name didnt give it away), but dont mind catching anything that will bite. I dont mind practicing C&R but not all the time because its always nice to take a few home now and then to eat. I found this site thanks to KevinB who i met on 1/11/09 out at bradley lake in pierce county.

Whats up everyone! My name is Ryan, been a member on here now since summer '08. I love this website and check it daily. Fishing is a great hobby of mine! I live in Seatac, work at Boeing in Renton. Age 25, and I like long walk on...Oh wait wrong website....HAHA KIDDING! Well I've grown up knowing only trout/salmon fishing. Started learning how to hunt/fish for bass the summer of '08. Now when i go fishing, i have options on what I'm looking for. I love flyfishing and this year hope to flyfish more for Bass. All in all I have been taught a great deal of respect for the outdoors and the environment. I've hunted since I was a kid as well. Its been great to get to know some of the guys through their posts and comments. And I look forward to continue learning from everyone of techniques, ideas, reports, etc on the great WL.com website!

[Bisk1tSnGraV]

Welcome aboard Ryan ... I look forward in reading and learning from your posts and comments as well!

[Carl762]

My name is Carl. I'm an Oregon resident but decided this year to get a Washington non-resident license. I plan to fish primarily Washington's lakes.

There's much more to offer in Washington and it's closer for me to drive.

Anybody ever want to float with me, send me a message or email.

Thanks.

Carl

for those of burnt out in are careers (sp?) reading your bio. is a bit tuff. What I'm saying is, WOW, nice photo and it sounds like you're on your way to a sweet career in something you love. Welcome to the board.

Hi, my name is Steve and I'm live in Buckley. Been a silent browser for well over a year now taking in all the knowledge you all are so gracious to give out. I do enjoy hunting salmon, bass, walleye, stealhead and lak trout. I realized even just a little information on a fishing spot can help someone. Just wanted to introduce myself and say thanks.

[Anyfish]

Welcome to the new guys! Bout time you came out of the closet

Great to see so many new members here already in my short time as a member. Went down to the sportsmen show and met Mike today. Lot's of fishmen by his booth today. He was pretty busy everytime I went by. I managed to grab a few minutes of his time and signed up for the new premeir membership. He's got some pretty neat stuff coming online (can you say gps) all part of the premier membership.

Great show this year. Lot's of peoples.

Hi folks!

Sure glad I found this site, I have read quite a few comments and fishing reports. I really would like to take an active interest in the club. I have two passions: Fishing and golf. Right now I have two boats, I just purchased a 15' Starcraft Aluminum early this fall. It needed a new floor, with open bow and walk through windshield; so I put in a new floor, new carpet, had the engine tuned and serviced, put an anchor winch on, new Bimini top, new seats, and a lot of sweat. I also have an older 16' fiberglass Waconda with a newer 30 HP Nissan ('95) 2-stroke outboard. It's a good boat, but it's bigger and heavier than I can manage alone, therefore I bought the aluminum one. It's easier to trailer. Hope to meet many of you and see you on the water. I'm always looking for a fishing buddy.
