The lake is currently closed access to fishing. When it opens back up it will probably be pretty good for catching panfish and huge catfish. To all new fisherman reading about this lake, only fish it if are able to keep your trash picked up. Littering almost lost us that park, and the locals (me being one) would like all visitors to keep the trash picked up. This is a nice hole to fish, so please don't blow it. This lake becomes a true hot spot in the fall and spring. The park should regain access by about oct or nov. Tight lines and lunker galore, Ben (local Puyallupian)
Was out for about two hours, lots of people at the park, few fishing.
We got 7 RB about 90 mins. time, using Powerbait eggs, no real color preference to the fish, chartreuse, pink, orange all worked. Fish ranged from 9 - 14 inches. Remember this water closes to adults on the 15th and stays juvenile only until June 12th with a derby for the kids on May 17th.
Take a kid fishing, keep those lines tight.
Back to the lake for Mom's day, we had trouble even getting to the water for dog mess everywhere, seems folks don't think the scoop rules pertain to them.
Tried every trick I could think of, flies, worms, powerbait, gulp eggs, lake is already weeding up, and getting hard to fish. State says they dropped 1000 in on the 2nd, they sure weren't anywhere we could find. Saw noone else catching anything either.
Got to lake at 6:30. Wasn't even there 4 an hour and already limited out. Last one was 23 inches. Used only gold cast master 1/4 oz. Many big ones still in there.
went around 1 pm fished off the dock. met two nice older then me ladies swapped fish stories till more people showed up. then left due to no bites too many bodies on a small dock 3 hours total time fished ... hey look its a new report !
