But all the guides just cant wait and fish people on spotty fishing.
You don't have to do the toilet bowl, troll the log booms and the other parts of the lake. Plenty of fish get taken without venturing into the "bowl". We usually start at Drano but end up fishing the bubble at the Wind. Bite can last longer and be more consistent. And way less crazy.

It can be one of the most crazy places to fish! Like said get there early and camp out. There will be fish there. What will be working on them is up in the air, until the fishing starts. Good luck to you, I am sure I will see you around. As well as a few other faces from here. :IBCOOL:
M2SP wrapped flat fish have been the producer since they came out....

I am thinking about fishing drano lake this april because some 300,000 springers are suppose to be running this year. It will be my first time fishing there and I was wondering if anyone had any advice on fishing the lake.
Coming from B-ham if I were you I'd plan on going during the week and staying for at least three days. Try to plan going when the nets are out. It is a ZOO! Even on the weekdays but not as bad as the weekends. Also there are some days those fish just wont bite then the next day its on fire. Since it would be your first time, Id recommend staying away from the circle jerk near the bridge until you get it figured out. Guys will tear you apart if you make any mistakes in that hole. Just as many fish in the rest of the lake anyway :twocents:

I know a lot of people that fish down there. It kinda just depends on who you ask. I have seen a lot of diffrent things used, and many diffrent producers.

I know a lot of people that fish down there. It kinda just depends on who you ask. I have seen a lot of different things used, and many different producers.
I know allot of people down there too. One is me. Fished it so much back in the day that STS even did an article on me. Not that it matters but I know the area and the trends over the years. Lots of people catch fish on lots of different things.
But I hear ya but I'm talking about 2 or 3 guide boats that constantly near limit there boats daily. But these guys fish it everyday and live in the parking lot sleeping with there M2SP's. Lol

I'll be on the bank again this year, watchin the zoo.
I will be as well for the most part. Most evenings after work, and weekends.
It is so much fun to watch the guide boats pushing the dead line, then the Wardens filming them and then writing them tickets for every rod in the water.. :chuckle: :chuckle:

I left at 10 and the 4 guides i know that were fishing over there had 8 fish on by 10. I don't know how they did for the rest of the day. They were running sardine wrapped kwicks in shallow water.

I fished from the dock in washougal yesterday and you should have been up there. ! fish on the dock right below me. And we watched the guides put on a clinic across the river from us.

Thats cray! we were out there up above and no one caught jack! With the water rippin like that I am suprised anyone did. All the guides up by us "4" did not catch one fish in the 7 hours I was out there. I guess we should have went lower. We trolled and sat on wrapped kwicks

The guy right below me on the dock had an 18 pound springer. It hit a green spin-n-glo with mylar wings.
