Fishing near Pullman

[Fletch]

My kids live in Pullman and I will be down there quite a bit this spring (April) was wondering if anybody can recommend some fishing near there.

Fletch,
Sorry for such a late post...  I lived in Pulltab for 5+ years.  Go down to Wawawai for Bass, Spring Steelies, and Bow shooting for Carp.. You can also catch a crap load of Squawfish (bounty on them.)  Below the dam near Boyer Park, you can catch huge catfish if you have a sturdy enough pole.  Tons of fish, even from the bank.

With kids...Spring Valley Reservoir hands down.  Great for kids.  Only about 10 miles from Pullman.

popes, it's probably been a while since you were at Spring Valley. It's in Idaho just out side of Troy, still only about 20 miles out of Pullman. You are correct. It is a great place to fish.

Yeah, it has been a while.  I can still remember driving out there every day after law school got out with my buddies and flyfishing with a case of Busch Lights.  Ah, those were the days...

By the way, they had some tiger muskies in there or something, would give you a real jolt if you weren't prepared for them...
