Title: Fishing around Kennewick?? UPDATE
Post by: quadrafire on March 12, 2015, 07:56:15 PM: May be going down to a HS soccer game tomorrow. Have the day off and could go early. What are the fishing opportunities close to there?

Post by: syoungs on March 12, 2015, 08:02:02 PM: You can fish stocker trout pretty close to town at hood park ponds, or a little further out at dalton pond (though it was super dlow today), there's also a small pond across from crazy maries in wallula. Bass are coming around, though its been slow as well.
Pm me if you want any specifics

thanks
I'll get my ducks in a row tonight whether i'm going or not and give you a jingle. It would be bank fishing, and I'd be open to anything swimming

Top dollar angler took home over $77,000 last year! That's a lot of $ for part time work that we all enjoy. They fight better than walleyes so they are fun to catch.

Post by: quadrafire on March 16, 2015, 08:17:58 AM: Well I ended up not going fishing. Some Dirtball broke into my truck during the night and stole all my fishing tackle and a down coat. Left the rod however.
Went for the game later in the day.
The tackle box stolen was a red soft side w/ zippered pockets and Plano boxes inside. approx 20x14x14. Jig heads, bodies, spoons,spinners, crank baits, several spools of line, filet knife etc. etc.
:bash:
:hunter: :guns:
I want some vigilante justice

If your fishing buddy shows up with a new red tackle bag and a brown down coat, give me a jingle ;)

Doesn't take much to burn up a 100.00

Not much worse in life than a low-down-good-for-nothing thief. I understand the vengeance desire, someone stole my Christmas lights, after I went off on my desires for him to get electrocuted and even worse - my wife said I was probably a little too pissed about the whole thing. :bash: Sorry for your loss.
