Here's the flyer for this year's derby on Lake Steven's! Good Luck, Winterun

American 9/8 Found myself with the afternoon free, and what better way to spend it than on American!!! My wife and 2 daughters wanted to go do "The Puyallup" fair, and had asked if I wanted to go........I thought nawwwww to hot to walk around on blacktop in the middle of the day right!?!? My...

AquaKing, I've fished American as late as Nov 3 according to my fishing logs. The main reason is because my favorite coastal stream was probably punched out, as I'm usually out there chasing after some late season coho or early winter run steelhead!!! The kokes during that time of year are...

American 9/2 The long weekend found me on the river chasing coho salmon, tooling around the sound hunting for pink salmon, and on American chasing after some kokanee!!! Well, 2 out of the 3 trips produced fish......let me tell you "pink" insn't my color!!! Ha Ha!!! Arrived at the lake around...

Mark, Sorry for texting you!!! But glad you made it out to wet a line, and got after some kokes!!! You have too, pretty soon it will be fall and we'll be wishing it was March all over again so we can get back into the lake!!! Joe

Found myself with a free week day of fishing so I headed out to American last Friday the 23rd. Arrived at the lake around 1030-11 to find only 4 other rigs in the parking lot. I guess the morning bite was good and the majority of the fishermen had already left?!?! Kinda nice though, didn't have...

Fished American after work on Friday the 19th. Hung out with the jet skiers, wake boarders, and the general pleasure boating population that afternoon. Started my troll where there wasn't anyone zipping past me!!! Only managed a couple of kokes to the boat with just as many trout and twice as...

Darren, When I got your text, that morning I was just putting another Chinook in the cooler. I had to look around to see if you were up at Sekiu playing a joke on me!!! Congrats, on one of American Lake's most prized catches a double digit kokanee that starts with the number 2 and ends in a 1...

Sorry this report is so late but been busy with work and just getting back from Las Vegas for a fishing tackle industry show called ICAST. So not too many details other than it was tough fishing, windy the whole time, some days the swells were 6' at 5-6 second intervals, and with the wind in the...

tinmanchris, No worries!!! "Sometimes life gets in the way" quoted by some of my fishing buddies!!! NOAA is calling for 13mph winds this evening anyway, so it would have been a tough night, it tends to keep most fishermen off the water and hopefully some skiers also!!! So it won't be so crowded...

Chris, Also, forgot to say since you asked. You mentioned it's been 10 years since you last fished, I'd return the Lazer Sharp hooks if you want a chance at catching anything!!! There's a lot better hooks out there now!!! I can spare some of mine if you guys come out!!!;)

Chris! Looks like your on the right track! Sometimes it's hard to take in all the info, let alone apply the newly gained info to fishing. I'm sure the "Kid" will give you plenty of it!!! Just kidding Chuck!!! But if you and your bro find yourselves close to Lakewood tomorrow around 6PM ish I'm...

2tyred, So you were there pretty early also, I noticed, an Alumaweld rolling into the parking lot along with guy in an another boat just getting into the water, as I was idling out past the no wake buoy was that you? Yeah, it was a bit tougher to find them that morning, but that's half the fun...

Well after TrollNFisher's text from Saturday stating that there were 25 boats on the water that day, I was kind of hesitant about heading out in the morning Sunday. But after checking the NOAA site for the weather, wind and temp specifically, and throw in the possibility of another armada of...

Mark, Glad to hear your getting into them. Sometimes a subtle adjustment, makes all the difference in the world. So I don't want to take any credit because it's something we learned as kids way back when fishing with our dads. It just takes us old guys a little longer to remember them...

Mark, So you and Darren were part of the flotilla of boats on American Saturday huh!!! Got a text from Darren Saturday morning around 7:30AM it says, "Joe there's 25 boats out here this morning!" I reply back, "There's only 4 boats out here on Summit!" I almost didn't have the heart to tell him...

Darren, I don't have a doubt in my mind that you can get one as big, if not bigger!!! There out there, and you know as well as I it just takes being out on the water doing what we like to do! Especially as much as you and your son fish together! But, hey thanks for the tip on Monday would not...

Had the chance to fish American Lk with my good friend Ret Sgt Maj on Sunday, we fished out of my boat because RSM was getting his serviced and ready for our Sekiu trip in a few weeks . Now we both have our 2 rod endorsements, and RSM decided to fish one off the DR and one flatlined dropper...

Both you guys kick my butt!!! But I think the weather kicked all are's on Monday!!! Glad to see you guys out there, in the rain and wind, giving it a go!!! Couldn't tell from this pic I took of your boat TrollNFisher around 6:30am that the weather turned for the worst!!! Tough conditions, I...
