RJ AKA CFM'S BITCH

Turned out to be Big Browns, left overs from when they planted South Warden Lake. Still Hungry Ones! "TRAPPER"

I still believe there are Crappie in Lake Fenwick. Even though they are not listed.
WDFW said Lake Holms up by Green River College had the same thing (No Crappie). That was until I tossed a Small Silver Rapala where there was a ripple inside a brush pile and Pow! Two 14 inch Spawning Crappie on the hook!

I did not catch any fish.

sounds like you had fun action. I use heavier weight....surf action dictates that. Those gulp worms are great.....last a lot longer than clam necks. I use a 50 lb braid (or something close to that).....zero concerns and cuts through the waves better. I'm sure you've heard of PK Yi on youtube...awesome videos. I've also sworn myself to not using a high end reel at the beach....one time in the sand/salt,,,,it's toast.

The fishing is really starting to turn on for bass. Have had most luck in the section on the map with swimjigs and ChatterBaits.

Just an FYI, I was out on Potholes and updated the map in several spots. The fishing was very good for both largemouth and smallmouth.

Go to lake Ki on the way to Goodwin. Use marshmallows only on three foot liter and a slip sinker. My godfather and I limited out in 15 minutes doing this. Med's. great times, man. Last week

Picked up a young sturgeon on the Cowlitz plunking herring on May 6th. Caught and released. View attachment 39681
