Well where we live over by yakima Wa the fishing is not so good! Most places to fish are at least a 30 min drive for us. There are some freeway lakes that stock trout a couple times a year but only a couple you don't have to hike into and with a disabled son thats out! Any good fishing is a two hour drive. I like to fish but last year I didn't! It wasn't worth the money for the poor fishing! I hope no one takes this wrong! I know there is good fishing in the state but not every where and not for everyone!
