How many go out on opening day?
« on: April 06, 2009, 11:30:22 AM »
I usually wait till the next weekend, but I fish the year round lakes till the opener.  So far it has been pretty good.
Judge if you want, we are all going to die.

I intend to deserve it.

I do on occasion, but I haven't had the fishing bug much lately.

Most of the lakes I fish are open year round. Still pretty funny to see how crowded they are on the opener, lol.

  We used to go every to a lake down in Thurston County, but I only fish year -round lakes anymore, the larger reservoir's, primarily because my boat doesn't do well in small lakes and you tend to find more variety in the larger lakes for trolling, not a still -fishing fan.

Benbo30, you are brave to do Lake Wilderness on the opener!  :yike:

We tried that about 10 years ago, I had to walk about 1/2 mile from where I had to park the trailer. It was so crowded you could not even troll.
