They are still coming up but as of right now Yale is still 17 feet down(Up from 20 feet on Sunday). It looks like they are storing as much as possible in Swift, it started at 35 feet down on Sunday and is now only 15 feet down. Here is a link to all the levels>...

Nice day or not make sure to check the water levels before making the drive, looks like this last week they made room for all the expected water that is coming, I cant remember what the lower limit is to launch but if I had to guess, Yale (-19 feet) and Swift (-34 feet) are both down too far...

I am afraid this is going to be a hot topic this year, here is some useful information about lake levels and what the minimum is for launching, I don't know for sure but it seems like Merwin's figures are a bit exaggerated so don't shoot the messenger if you go and find you cant launch. Oh and...

Here is some useful information as the water levels drop http://tdn.com/lifestyles/drought-threatens-fish-runs-boat-launching-on-lewis-river/article_54e7c7f6-f7e8-5f79-b3e2-dc3721429644.html ARIEL — The drought is putting a squeeze on PacifiCorp, as the utility juggles competing uses for the...

Also going to need to keep this in mind: Its going to be an interesting year with water levels! The Daily New Article has some useful information in it: ARIEL — The drought is putting a squeeze on PacifiCorp, as the utility juggles competing uses for the streamflow of the North Fork of the...

Just realized the 18th is out for us as well........Soccer tournament in Tumwater stomper

There are fish there, we scratched out 3 limits running mainly between Speelyai and Campers Hideaway on the 17th. I also know of another boat that starts dropping lines in before they even get out of the bay. This weekend we fished down by the dam mainly to try to avoid the crowds but the...

I grew up living in Spangle and fished that lake a lot as a kid/teen, I remember Oly (sp?) and his newspaper cash register system, you would buy a candy bar and he would go to a certain spot in the stack of papers and make change! I never really gave it much thought until later but I have...

July 11 is when the Green Peter derby was scheduled for but it has been canceled. However there is a special needs kids fishing day at the Merwin hatchery that we are hoping to attend and help out with now that we are going to be around.

Glad you found em!! thumbsup We were marking fish from 10-50 feet but the only ones that seemed to want to play later in the morning were the ones in the 30' range. Kind of funny, Shawn was asking me if I knew who you were and "How do they know my name :confused: ??"

Never fished it but 45 min north up HWY 395 (just north of Deer Park) is Loon Lake, 2 hrs north up HWY 2 into Idaho is Priest Lake, I think they are also in Lake Pend Oreille and Coeur d alane as well. (Should research it and not take my word for it). Priest Lake is worth the drive just for...

Here is a link to the water levels: http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/total_forecast/getprod.php?wfo=pqr&sid=PQR&pil=RVM Today it shows 9 ft below full which is PLENTY to launch at Speelyai, when it starts getting down to the 225-227 ft range it can get challenging for some boats. For those venturing up...

It is interesting for sure! Each lake or reservoir seems to have different characteristics. We have not fished Chelan (YET!) but your statement makes me wonder about what the water temps are doing at those depths. In the places we checked Merwin there was less than 1/2 a degree change from the...

Wow what a BEAUTIFUL DAY! We had a few hours Sunday morning 25th. We had to pull the plug about 11:30 to make it to Shawn's soccer game on time but with weather like this and the fishing being EXTREMELY good I couldn't resit going! Not that we needed an excuse but my parents were also in town...

If you ever decide to make the drive let us know!! thumbsup

Cameron is putting this on at Bob's this Thursday, this should be a good one for those that want to learn. We will be hanging around as well. I had to work yesterday but my son Shawn AKA Wild Child went out with him yesterday and they limited the boat with 50 101ok101.

Stellar Start to the Year! We don't visit KKF as much as we should threw out the year but I see that someone has started a Merwin thread for the year so I thought we would join in. January 1st, other than being a bit cold you couldn't ask for a a better day, we finished with 19. And yesterday...
