Title: Billy Clapp Lake
Post by: quadrafire on March 21, 2018, 10:10:35 AM: Is it year round fishing? Don't see it in the regs.

Generally, if a lake isn't listed under "Eastside Lakes - Special Rules", then statewide rules apply. That's my assumption for this lake.

Don't sue me if I am wrong and you get arrested. :chuckle:

I've never fished it but went last year this time and it was still iced over. There is a good area to launch at the south end by the dam.
I may wait for the 2 hr drive until i'm sure it's ice off.

Post by: tlbradford on March 23, 2018, 03:14:43 PM: I drove by it 3-4 weeks ago and it was clear. Then we had that little cold snap. I would bet there is zero ice, but don't rely on that before taking a drive.

Post by: plugger on March 23, 2018, 07:15:44 PM: Its ice free, has a good launch, limited parking but that shouldn't be a problem this time of year.
