A picture of CMA's inaugural general membership meeting. Always open to the public. Meetings are the 2nd Tuesday of each month, 7-8:30pm at Playa Azul restuarant in Puyallup just off River Rd next to Value Village.
A great organization off to a great start.
Come join us.

I was in Auburn Sports the other day and noticed a gentleman buying his 09 fishing license. It was a good reminder to me since I hadn't bought mine yet. I did when this man was finished paying for his.
I just thought I'd remind you folks to get yours also.

2-FER: 2 lakes in two days.
Silver Lake near Spokane on Sat, May 30th and Newman Lake on Sun, May 31st.
We're hoping to get the opportunity to fish with some Spokane local folks, make new acquaintances and have some fun.
This is an OPEN event - meaning there is no membership required to participate. A small $20 entry fee covers the pay out for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishes and permit costs.
Any questions, PM me or email me.

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.

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?
