WDFW Fall into Fishing Lake Listings!

[Nelly]

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) has now stocked most of 33 Western Washington lakes scheduled to receive a total of 75,000 large rainbow trout by Thanksgiving.

Chris Donley, WDFW's inland fish program manager, said he expects angling to be very good throughout the winter months at all of these lakes.

"Most of the trout stretch 12 to 17 inches, but some tip the scales at 5 or 6 pounds," said Donley. "These are very nice trout, and they're ready to be caught now."

Here's the list of lakes, the country these lakes are in and the number of rainbows stocked!

Good question... And, Silver Lake at that??
Not that I'm complaining because that's a bunch of quality trout, but I would have liked to have seen a couple lakes with better boat access added to that list.
