A few corrections on Russ's post:

July J &J - Vantage or Roosevelt

August - Long LK or Chelan

I'm pretty excited about our selections for next year...I just hope we get most of them.  

Dave J & Larry S, are you guys going to the selection process meeting together in November?

I have a guy I work with who lives on Long Lake in Kitsap county. He said, "the lake was going downhill fast". He was telling me that the homeowners association wanted to kill off the bass or have them caught an removed from the lake. I don't think that lake would be a good choice. My 2cents.

Thats why I put Kitsap County on there to make sure we were talking about the same lake. I knew somebody would let me know if it was the same lake or not.

P.S. I never been to the other long lake(Spokane). But I do have a Long Lake by my house in Lacey

Can we say lillypads Sarge...5lbers?  Jigs?  Boy that was an exciting day wasn't it?

Last year, Sarge & I were fishing Long Lake the first week of August when that freak windstorm slammed all of Eastern Washington....wow that was something.  It felt like the end of the world....the Apocalypse
(40-50+mph gusts).

We could see this huge brown cloud moving down the lake at us at an alarming speed.   At the time, we didn't know what it was- It just didn't feel right.  My first thought was that Mount St Helens had blown up.  I surmised pretty quickly this phenomenen wasn't going to be a good.  I demanded Chris and my other buddy Ken, reel in their lines as quickly as possible so we could get the hell out of there.

We headed to the launch as fast as the Champion would go.  We were about 30-40 seconds ahead of it when Chris jumped out on to the dock to get the truck and trailer.  As soon as he backed the trailer in to the water, it hit.  I was getting slammed around like a cork.  I had about one shot to get the boat on the trailer or I was going to be mincemeat!  I was fortunate enough to get it on the trailer the first shot.  Chris then went to park the boat while I jumped out and ran for shelter to the resort/tavern dodging blown down tree branches and flying garbage cans along the way.   I'll never forget that day- WOW!!

Bob and Sarge,

My family and I were driving to Idaho when that huge storm hit. We got as far as Moses Lake, got a hotel because we had seen on the news that the weather was bad near Spokane, and went into Godfathers in Moses Lk for dinner. By the time we came out of the restaurant, the sand in th air was so thick you could hardly breathe. The sandstorm there lasted until after dark.

My uncle and aunt were at their cabin on Lake Pend O'rielle near Sandpoint when it hit, and they described it the same way you did, with the huge brown cloud, terrible wind and lots of lightning.

I'm glad you guys made it to a nice safe bar....
