Pass Lake - Deception Pass

The reports that we have been getting from this popular fly fishing only lake has been far from stellar. From those that we have spoke with recently have all said the lake is very murky and in bloom. Needless to say that the fishing has not been anything to write hope about. One of the regular Pass Lake fisherman had been targeting the browns in the late afternoon and early evening by casting streamer/ bait fish patterns into the shoreline and stripping them quickly back to the boat imitating fleeing panic stricken bait fish trying to elude a pursuing predator. Though fishing has not been hot, by using this method has accounted for a couple of browns per outing up to around 18 inches.

With the warmer weather we should start to see some better fishing.
