2018 County Challenge! and still...one more and done!

I have been consumed since June with my Washington State County Challenge!
I have to catch a keeper bass
(1 pound or better using Major League Fishing rules)
in all 39 counties of Washington State!
I started off by checking off all of the counties I have already caught numerous keeper bass in over the years and that left me with 22 counties to complete...I'm now down to 8
It's an amazing way to see the State and has been an absolute blast! Here's a video link if anyone wants to follow along

Isn’t Banks also in Douglas County on the north side? I cannot remember which lake you logged for Grant but I am also sure there are other bass places in Douglas.
That Wahkiakum bass is going to be tough. What about Elochoman Slough?
