I didn't go to the Silver Lake draw   I had some things come up on Friday that ran longer then I thought they would & I was just to wiped out to pack all my stuff & make the drive.
I went to Lake WA on Saturday. It was very windy & I was having a tough time getting around in my little boat. At 3pm I had 0 fish & was about to call it a day when I decided to give it the ONE MORE CAST . The next 20min I got 4 fish a 4.8 4.2 3.5 3.4 WOW what fun. After a long drive to one more spot with no luck I run into Bill Hill & a friend of his I don't recall his name but we can just call him the worst camera man hence the bad photos. All the fish were in 6-10 feet must have been on beds but I could not see them cause the wind/chop in the water.

Nice pigs!  Great little spot there huh?

Very Nice Fish....FATTIES indeed

I hate to break it to you but I did not catch these fish in the Canals. I did fish the Canals early in the day but no fish were in there yet. I only took pictures at that location because that's were I saw Bill Hill coming out. A smart angler never takes pictures in the same location as his catch

Russ,
Remember when Lake Washington was pretty much an untouched fishery? Well, I had fished the canals at least 12 years ago, and then was using the dropshot about 8 years ago to boot. Pretty amazing fishery..... 2.5# was the SMALLEST fish you would catch, and the average was 3.7#.........

I saw someone saturday along the Eastside shoreline of Lake Wa by the newcastle exit in a Nitro. Was that any of you?
Just wondering how they did. Seems like they were fishing fast.

I was just driving around checking things out. I just got a boat. I will be out soon. I will need assistance getting to know some starting spots on the local lakes around here.

Awesome Says.  I thought about going out there this weekend, ton's of pre-fishers I'm sure.  Go get em Wolsky/Hendrickson 

Just looked.... Best of the Northwest is this weekend.....12th-13th................Northwest bass is next weekend...19th-20th
