Where are all those great fishing holes? Where do you take visitors when they want to go Steelhead in early November? This is the book you. Find those holes, just around your block, ( really!!!), or just a few miles away. Thanks Terry.....

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, August 5, 2005

By	William C. Collins - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Foghorn Outdoors Washington Fishing: The Complete Guide to Fishing on Lakes, Rivers, Streams, and the Ocean (Paperback)

After 35 years of not fishing I found this book invaluable and brought me up to date on equipment, regulations, as well as what lakes and streams were producing. Hats off to this author. William Collins

5.0 out of 5 stars Fishing here in the State of Washington!, June 7, 2004

By	Robert Clark (Monroe, Washington USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Foghorn Outdoors Washington Fishing (Foghorn Outdoors Series) (Paperback)

Terry Rudnick has one of the best jobs on this planet! He fishes the state and writes about it to make a living! Wow! If you live here or not and want to know the inside scoop about fishing in Washington State, this is the book. From fishing on a holding pond for the Grand Coulee Dam (Banks Lake), Curlew Lake near Republic to the Seep Lakes at Pot Holes, you should read this before you load up your RV and your fishing gear.
Terry knows all the experts, like say Dave over at Coulee Playland on Banks Lake.
One reminder: If you are out of state, don't violate the Washington State Fishing Laws or you will be in a WORLD OF HURT. Read the Fishing Regulations carefully before throwing a line in the water. The regs are complex and in many cases vary as to the stream, river or lake you're fishing in! On line go to: http://wdfw.wa.gov. Keeping a 14-inch bass is not worth the pain and suffering you will experience if they catch you! Otherwise, welcome and have fun!
