Hello new member here. I caught the bug about 4 years ago by hooking a silver by mistake fishing for trout on Lake Stevens. I couldn't have been happier after finding out what it was. My angling background comes from northern MI so I'm not new to fresh water salmon fishing. (just not on this small of a scale, the fish in Huron are full size) I have come to love "mini" fishing as much or better. Now I live in Renton and fish the nearby waterways including Angle, Langlois, American, Cle Ellum and some others. Recently hooked the first silvers of the year at Alder. Got 3 about 12" on red apex. Looking forward to good reports and advice from fellow Wa kokeheads.
greetings

Angle was the ticket last year tongue2
But 2 years ago the state did not plant kokes, so there should not be any koke fishing this year crymeariver
When were you at Alder? Been wanting to hit that.

Thanks for the warm welcome gentlemen. I'm glad someone got the silver nitrate joke, I almost went with wed wedding wing...
silver bullets: have not fished any of those lakes, although I will try sammamish and or washington some day, it just seems like there is always too much going on to deal with Where is Shannon and Baker? up north?
Kokanee kid: I was at Alder last weekend got 3 small kokes on red apex about 20ft down near north end of the lake
Also, checking the dfwl website angle has been stocked with around 2500 fry every year since 2005 (maybe even before that but the list doesn't include fry plants untill 05) I'm sure there are enough left for it to remain my midweek lake
everyone--I need a spot for this weekend, I was thinking maybe american or something else in northern pierce county any suggestions?
