Instead of fizzing the fish, would this be a good alternative? The link option didn't work so here's the URL site: http://www.outdoorproshop.com/Shelton-s-Fish-Descender-Deep-Water-Fish-Release-p/sheltons_fish_descender.htm

Has anybody had an opportunity to put side imaging to the test? What do you like and what do you not like. I'd like to hear some first hand experiences and maybe see it in real time before I invest in a unit. With Lowrance as an option now, can anyone help shed light on the adantage of Humminbird vs Lowrance?

I have been an avid bass angler my whole life. I've lived here in Queen Anne for 13 years and am originally from Baltimore. I am a research scientist at UW and am a photographer and skydiver. I am embarrassed to say that I have just discovered in the past two years that there are actually BASS on this side of the mountains. I have fished Kapowsin a lot and have done pretty well but I'd like something a little closer to home------like Lake Washington. I'd love to hook up with someone to show me…

Hey everyone. I would like to thank Jordan since I'm new to the site. Everything I have read is very helpful and makes me really pumped to get out on the water this spring. I am kinda new to fishing the West side of Washington, but am not really new to bass fishing (have been doing it since I was 13 now am 19 mostly, on Potholes and Moses and some of the seeps in that area). Would love to spend some time on Lake WA in the back of someone's boat since I'm not really able to devote the money or…

My wife and I just moved here from Nevada and we are very anxious to get into some great northwest fishing we have always heard about. A friend of mine that I am working with told me about this site and said this is the most informative fishing site to look into. We have always fished small streams and creeks but we would very much like to expand our fishing efforts. Anyone looking for fishing partners?

Mine would have to be the 1 oz Ducktail spinnerbait in black. Could be just because I throw it more than most other blade/hair baits but since spinnerbaits are more weedless, I can throw it more places.
The 'big fish' question didn't draw much attention so maybe this one will. I'd sure like to hear from everyone on what they like to throw and how they work it.

My favorite glider is a 6" Bikini Bait Co Turmoil but I also like Phantoms. I probably throw a glider 1/2 the time I'm on the water and have been pretty darn lucky with them. I like the satisfaction in working a lure to the action you think is right and then have a musky hammer it. I get plenty of satisfaction from catching muskies on other lures also but not near as much as I do from 'walking the dog' with a glider.

I noticed recently that there are many new members joining Wafish every day. Some are avid musky fishermen and some are just merely interested or curious. Don't be shy - make sure you join the Musky Group! You don't need an invite - just click on join and start getting involved. The more suggestions, tips, questions and ideas the better! Not to mention the Bass Group outnumbers us by roughly 100! I know we can do better and I also know we have some bass enthusiasts with us already. Musky…

Just trying to ge a feel for what you guys like to throw for that big girl you've seen but haven't been able to count yet.
I think my best big fish bait so far has been a Ducktail Lures bucktail. What's yours?

I just wanted to thank everyone who showed up for the first CMA meeting! Even though I am stuck in Korea I heard it was a great showing and especially wanted to the guys from the WDFW for taking the time to go and speak "esox" with everyone!
Hopefully someone from the group will post some pictures from the meeting.

First off let me start by saying that this post is NOT meant to start any political crap about brand A vs brand B. I truly wish the best for all the anglers fishing either Federation, or both for that matter. The point I do want to make is how great the opportunies are for fellowship, competition, and advancement. For any of you who have never fished the Qualifier Series Tournaments I would like to take a few minutes to fill you in on how the formats are set up and to encourage people to…

Just thought I would mention that I would enjoy fishing with anyone as a back seater or just share expenses. I like to fish for steelhead and flyfish as well as fish for Bass.

Hi guys and gals,
I wanted to thank everyone here for becoming a part of WAFISH.com. I started this site mid november and launched it towards the end of November as a resource for all of us fishermen in Washington. As membership grew at a pace of about 2 new members a day I made a goal of 150 members by April, which I thought was really shooting for the stars. Well, guess what? Not only did we meet that goal, but we did it a month ahead!
I am excited for the fishing to kick up…

Had the chance to get out on Washington this afternoon for fishing and test drive'n. After being in several boats, I actually prefered the Z21 over the Z520 or the 208. The Z21 was much roomier for my 6'6" frame. With only a 225, we were at 70mph in no time flat. I couldn't believe how quiet and smooth the ride was. I'll be getting a Z21 really soon! Thanks to Willie Nelson, Mel (State Team), Aaron and others for bringing the boats down. You sold me on the boat!
Oh yeah...fish'n. Sat on…

Fished early evening after work. 2-3 hour worth of wading through the cold, light brown & dark green river paid off for fishing partner Don & I.....Bang-a-Rang.
We went 2 for 2 on a pair of metal heads at a couple of local holes. Sure beats sitting around and watching the evening news!
Nice Job Don!

Heading to Lake Washington tomorrow to get some smalljaw fishing in. I'll also be giving Ranger Boats test rides from 10-2pm tomorrow out of Gene Coulon park if anyone wants to check out the new Rangers (or my discounted 08 Ranger which is for sale).
Hope to see you on the lake!
ciao,
Marc

So I've seen a couple of good hook-in-finger type pics here and in case anyone wasn't aware I thought I would throw up some stuff on getting hooks out of yourself.
Make sure you have a first-aid kit and some cutters powerful enough for the thickest hook you have on board. You never know when this will happen (and even if you are confident it won't you can never truly be ready for others actions).
First method: Advance-and-cut
This one everyone probably knows about -…
