Lake Stevens

Post by Proverb » Tue Aug 07, 2007 6:44 pm

I saw a thread a little while ago about lake stevens so I suggested my brother go and fish it and he wasn't able to get any bites. What are good times and basic baits for him to use so I can let him know?

Early morning is best for trout/kokanee. evening is good for bass
Land - fish from the county boat launch docks. Power bait, worms, best if you are up off the bottom.
Boat - troll a wedding ring 15'-60' deep for trout or kokanee, 4" rapala for trout or bass. Fish the docks with whatever is your favorite, spinnerbaits, crankbaits, rubber worms, pignjig all work well.

good luck.

CK -

Were those largies or smallies you were catching under the docks? What size were they?

I only ask because I recently moved near the lake, and have had very little success fishing it for bass. I just need something to keep me motivated to get back out there!

smallies, i got mine on wacky rigged senkos and the big one came on a texas rigged senko. green pumpkin & watermelon, both in 4". look for docks in 15'-20', also look for steep shoreline dropoffs. i found a couple places where it was 15'-25' really close to the shore and was just covered in downed trees. there's some good largies in there too from what i've heard, saw a pic of a 7lb+ from a couple months ago.
