Title: Annual migration has begun!
Post by: E-Town Hunter on April 22, 2009, 11:04:27 AM: Well being that I live in Ephrata and all the west side traffic has to come through town to get to the Sun lakes chain, I have again witnessed the annual migration of "coasties" :chuckle: heading over for the opener. I swear the population of grant county triples this weekend. :o Good luck...and don't be that guy holding everyone up at the launch PLEASE!

We'll see

Last year we were headed back to the cabin from a little night fishing and saw 3 does munching grass next to our cabin.

There is always a few people that speed trool with their ski boats that sit so low in the water and put off a 3' wake. Kinda hard on a 12' aluminum boat. These guys kept zipping by us, and I'd nose in to the wake and ride'em out. Dont understand people have no consideration.
