A Fishermens Guide to Selected Lowland Lakes of Northwest Washington

Most fishing guides offer very limited information on a large number of lakes, most of which their authors have never been near. This book provides detailed inf...ormation on the lake and surrounding area, as well as directions and fishing tips. All lakes included in this book have been personally visited, photographed, and in most cases fished by the author. The emphasis is on the fisherman's perspective, but detailed trail and camping information is provided where applicable. Even those who only wish to hike and camp will find something for them. The lakes selected for inclusion in this book are from Island, Skagit, Snohomish and Whatcom counties of northwest Washington. They range from lowland warm water lakes to mountain lakes, but all are below 2,500 feet elevation. Some are in National Forest areas, and some on private timberlands. Many are in urban locations with public access areas, while others require a hike. The author is a ten-time Washington State record holder, with certified weight records for five different species of fish. Catch data for several hundred lakes, dating back to 1981, has been provided to Washington State fish biologists. Born and raised in northwest Washington and part of a very outdoor oriented family, the author has spent his entire life exploring new places and looking for new waters to fish.Detailed info »« Brief info
