This is an article off the Westfly web site about big fish stillwaters in the Western US. I found it interesting that the author listed 5 nearby lakes and reservoirs in Oregon in the list of 15. (Crane Prairie, Davis Lake, East Lake, Wickiup Reservoir and Upper Klamath Lake). Linda and I have personally flyfished four more of the waters on the list during our travels. (Hebgen, Henry's, Quake, Island Park). Want to hit Omak in Washington state this spring.
Of the list, we had the most outrageous fishing on Crane Prairie and Island Park. When conditions on those two are hot, they're hard to beat...or to forget.
Just a nice tap on the shoulder and reminder about why we like to live here. One can lose sight of that at times.
Any stillwaters in the West that you think belong on this list?? Stories you'd like to tell about experiences at one of these fisheries?
