Thanks Steve
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

the wenatchee itself is closed except for whitefish, unless they open it up on  may 1 for spring kings.  theres a ton of fishing and hunting all over town, the icicle up at leavensworth will be open for spring kings hopefully soon

you can shed hunt up on saddle rock, ive heard there are some big ole boys up there, cant hunt up there its all private but its open for hiking and mountain biking

if you got the right rig head up colockum pass area and do some shed hunting for elk

the rock island ponds are good fishing once they get warm, ive been down there a few times now and they are still cold and slow.  the manson lakes are good spots but you have to go on the week days, they are primary boat fishing lakes but there is some bank access, theres good fishing for trout at lake chelan between the bridges or off the dock at mill bay (manson)

turkey season is close and theres turkey up colockum, gotta know where to go though

if you need directions to anywhere or got any questions shoot me a pm,  gotta help a fellow FSU'er not go insane

They planted the ponds recently.  The one thats tucked back away to the west of the town is hot right now.  Water is still cold and the bass and panfish are slow but catchable.  We have been slaying the trout down there from the shore with powerbait.  If you have access to any sort of small non powered boat hop in it and head away from the parking area and the fishing gets better and the fish get bigger.

Hit me up if you want specifics.  We've been fishing fools the last few weeks at the ponds and quincy lakes.
