Does anyone here know if there are any kayak fishing tournaments in Washington..?? I see them all over the country but none here in Washington. 

Would anyone be interested in helping out one on if there are none to be found...?? 

Could do bass, walleye,trout etc.. 

First off, thank you to everyone who ordered shirts and hoodies. I received them yesterday and am shipping them out this week. 

For those of you who missed the cutoff date, I do have a few extras of each color and size. Shoot me a message and let me know what you would like and I'll let you know what's left. 

Staying with a buddy in Bremerton Sept 3rd-9th and wondering if you guys had any advice or experience fishing at Evergreen park?

Do you guys think it would be worth buying the license and tackle to give it a try and if so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Davin

Shirts and Hoodies are available for pre-order here: http://wafish.bigcartel.com/. Only accepting pre-orders this time around and will not have many extras so make sure to purchase online now to ensure you get your WAFISH gear. I will be taking pre-orders until July 31st and submitting the order afterwards. Both the shirts and hoodies come in black or charcoal. 

It's a great way to support the site and look good doing…

I got the chance to write another bass fishing story for the Skagit Valley Herald Sports & Outdoors section. It's about a local angler, Tyler Wasilewski, who competed at the FLW college championship at Lake Murray a couple weekends ago. Wasilewski and partner Cy Floyd managed a top-10 bag after a rough first day. They represented Eastern Washington University. The story is written for a general audience so I didn't get a chance to go in depth but I figured many of you would like to read…

No one knows I'm asking for this but...

Could everyone please donate 1 dollar to Wafish?

I know and see what Jordan cost are to keep this great site.

And I have met a ton of people too So please send mail at least 1 buck (or more if you want to)

This is a site I would never want to loose.

Hi Everyone,

I've got another run of WAFISH.com decals for your truck/boat to fly the colors. They are about 4" X 6" big and are die cut with a clear background. Very cool and excellent quality.

A site donation of $5 or more will get you one mailed to your doorstep.

Hi Everyone,



It's been brought to my attention that a few of you don't like receiving all the emails from WaFish. Here's how to choose what you want to be notified on via email:



To change the email settings you go to the "My Page" tab on the top, select "Settings" on the top right, and choose "Email" on the left. There you can choose what you want to be notified on via email, or you can choose to receive no emails at the…

Right now I don't if this will work, as I am semi-handicapped myself, but I would  like to try to take some of our HEROS fishing. I lived in Port Angeles, on the Straits, and I would like to start a"Wounded Warrior fishing program for the whole of WA. I don't think it would matter if its Bass (freshwater), Salmon, Halibut, bottom fish, or just a day in the outdoors or on the water! I am putting this out there to see what kind of response I get, I know People I am definitely taking out…

  OK,OK, So some information isn't worth a ....  The Rufas Woods release does not measure up as advertized, seems to me that an average fish might go 2lbs, an I doubt it was over 2500 fish if that.  Its a shame that solid information is so hard to come by on that fishery, but thats just how it goes.  Walleye fishing on Rufas has slowed from the slamming start back in march, but early post spawn is often tough.  Still, a few nice fish are coming to the net, mostly on jigs, or craw…

  So here we are in May, water temps ranging fron 53 to near 60 degrees in the "pocket water" areas.  As expected, the crawdad imitating bite is improving steadily as the signal craws move closer to thier spawn.  Smallmouth are responding with abandon to cranks or plastics representing craws on both Banks and Roosevelt.  Fish from 3 to 12 ft. depending on light and wind conditions.  Walleye in the northern basin are either spawn or post spawn.  More "empty" fish being caught in the last few…

Washington state Junior state championship, to be held on Lake Sammamish this Saturday, a one day tournament for youth to go to a National Championship for scholar ship funds, needs a couple more boats for the one day tournament.

I am short on boats for the kids to fish out of due to some unexpected boat problems, This is a one day tournament that will end at two oclock Saturday, I will pay for launch fee's and kids pony up fuel cash for the boater.

Bass boats prefered, but if…
