Lake Stevens Kokanee

Here's what it used to show

Page 18 of the regs I believe..  I had a hard time finding this as well.  Kokanee statewide limit is 10.  It has to be specified as less or it is 10

here it is

Oh nice, I never knew the statewide for kokanee was 10.  Thanks

Ok here's another question then.  After finding that out.  I went to look up Lake Meridian and since it's a year around lake it's not listed in the regs.  If the lake is a year around lake but has special regs (like American Lake) it would still list it and show the special regs.  So since Meridian isn't listed at all would it be under statewide rules and be a 10 kokanee limit

For some reason this site wont let me put photos up from my new phone. But my 4 year old daughter and I got 14 today in 2 hours. It was crazy, trying to get the lines down and hitting fish before the setup. We lost around 10-15 fish but she had a blast. The fish were hitting gods tooth blue and crome and my personal flies. All fish except a few were below 40ft. My scent was DNA on the dodger and my favorite tuna corn mixture on the hook. Good luck and tight lines!

Send the Pics to yourself in an email, and when it asks, select medium or low Resolution. Then Save those to your Photos. You should be able to post them.

Seriously, don’t waste your time fishing for Kokanee on meridian. From what I was told, they haven’t stocked it for years, I fish that lake regularly and have never caught one.

I would agree, if you are looking for Kokes, Meridian is not where I would choose.
I use to fish Meridian often, and do not remember ever catching a Koke there. Even trout are not that plentiful. Averaged about one or two per trip.

Lake Desire has better trout fishing than Meridian by far, and fairly close.
For Kokes run down to Alder.

  He tells no lie, trout are very hard to catch there. I did catch a nice 18” a few weeks ago. I also caught a good sized catfish trolling...🤣
