Thanks for posting the report Larry.  I did ok, was able to catch a few fish, nothing over 12 inchs.  Did get about a 12 inch largie on a buzzbait.  I think I counted 5 bass between 11-12 inchs, small dinks, perch, even a tiny bluegill.  Dropshot around the 15-20 foot range caught most of mine.

Hey...where were you this AM?
We were at Sammamish with 6 boats and about 10 folks all of which caught fish up to 4 pounds!
Myself and Dave "Dipsnort" started out with a nice Largemouth topwater bite from chuggers and Skitter Pops to spinnerbaits then as the sun got up we started looking for a Senko-dock pattern but it did not develop with the wind and boat traffic we started drop shotting in 8-25 feet and altogether for the day our boat brought in about 12-15 keepers the largest a 2-14 largemouth on the Skitter Pop.
Great day and it pays to get there early.... as we left the were 27 trailer combo's backed up onto East Lake Samm. Pkwy.!
EEEEOOOOUUUUUCCCCHHH!

usually noon or 1pm

ok fine, what time is lunch usually.

For some after lunch...for others not until Dark!

what time does the fish-in usually end?

i'll be there if i can find a truck to pull my boat.

Cool!  I've only fished Sammammish once and loved it.  I'll be there for sure!

The sign on the gate says 6.30am, but last Sunday I was there at 5.45 and it was open and a couple of boats were already launching.

Hope to see ya there with the Green Machine!!

Sounds great I can't wait! 8) Anyone know what time the gate opens at Sammamish?

Thanks, Stu

The topwater bite has been good at most lakes so feel free to get out there early and Get-R-Done. Let me know before hand if you are in the "kitty". I actually might go early and come back to the launch to meet everyone, so I may miss breakfast.

I'll say be at the launch 0630. People meeting for breakfast should get there at 0530.

I hope the word gets out that we have switched. The newletter said Washington. The bite has been good there but I didn't know about Seafair. Logistical error on my part.

I'll be shooting to the Potholes immediately after lunch so I'll be cooking quick and cleaning up quick. Lunch will be simple like burgers or dogs or something.

Sorry guys I have been out of town for about a week. I fished Potholes all weekend then turned around Sunday night and drove back to Yakima for a conference.

I heard about the Seafair deal and honestly don't think we want to be out the during this. Sammamish sounds good to me, so I have made the command decision and say Sammamish it is. I wanted to keep it local since we had been driving far for lakes quiet a bit. I will dig up the info on where to meet. It will be the same spot as in the past and is in older posts for Sammy.

I don't really care where it is but would like to know where we are meeting?  For breakfast?  For launch?

Now that I am bootless and relegated to the backseat I just want to get along.

Rich

Or maybe Black Lake?
