Just checking, are you still going on despite the weather.  Supposed to have 4-6 inches of snow Friday/Friday Night night at Seven Bays.  We're a cold weather fishing bunch but driving down the hill to Ft Spokane...

Yes cant change it again already did with the state and NPS so this is it unfortunately we cant change the weather. We all hope for 60's and sunny lol...Only suppose to be a 40 percent chance and not much accumulation. But snow is snow, we will have de ice and sand if needed at the end of the day..

  We decided not to chance it, dang weather anyways. We were really looking forward to it, always next year.

We had a great time and had 27 people at the event. We gave away a lot of great prizes and had some good food. Weather was actually really good no snow or rain all day during the event. Thanks again to everyone who made the treck in the morning snow and fished with us...Thanks Craig

Wish i could have made it.  It was a great time last year.  Weather didn't scare me away but work did .  When is the next tourney?? Anything this Summer?

The northwest walleye circuit has 5 tournaments scheduled this spring/summer. Open to 2 man teams. 2 in Umatilla, one each on banks, kettle falls and potholes. They are a blast to fish. always looking for more competition. Fish as many or few as you want. Entry fees are considerably more, But so are the payouts. If anyone is interested, I can post the dates. they are 2 day events

Banks May 20 &21
 kettle falls june 24 & 25
umitilla aug 5 & 6.
 They are all about 250 plus  options for 50  for big string and 50 big fish that pay out both days. Its a good idea to do the option pots. chances are if you place, you will be winning some option money and if your having a bad day, your still only one bite away from a pretty good payday.

  How did the brave souls that showed do as far as catching?  Not that I am really wishing I would have braved it.

I think we had 30 something trout with the biggest being 4lb 10oz one walleye 2lbs 5oz, 3 burbot biggest 2.5lbs. Fishing was hard to say the least with not being able to access the arm...Hopefully going to do two, one next Jan and the again in April of 2018..Actually the roads weren't bad at all they had them all cleaned up by morning and the weather was great no rain or snow and low to mid thirties and calm winds. The day actually was very good for the time of the year...
