Title: Horseshoe Lake Spokane County
Post by: twinners on May 29, 2019, 05:56:57 PM
Just looking for some info on the Horseshoe Lake west of Spokane. Is it selective gear rules or no? And I was told it is no motors is that no gas motor or no motor at all. Thinking about trying it on Friday but near as I can tell it is not even listed in the regulations. Thanks.

It's a tiny lake and the put-in is surrounded by lilypads. You've got to punch through that stuff to get to the main section, which still isn't very deep or big. It's more of a kayak sized lake than anything I'd run a motor in. It didn't used to be selective gear a few years ago at least but the fishing wasn't great either. Some bows and bullheads is about it I think. Real pretty though

Thank you. I have a ram-x scanoe that is good for paddling small water or bigger with the motor on the back.

It has a pretty waterfall. Last time I fished it we did more exploring than fishing.

Fished in 1996 via a float tub and caught some planter rainbows .  I was using the old school Metzker map before the days of cell phones and took a wrong turn just before the lake. 

Ended up at a moonshine still...not kidding.  I backed up fast when a guy came out from under his camo netting.
