Vladimir's 'secret lake' really was a secret - once. Then it became the latest 'destination' lake with fly shops and clubs across Washington and Oregon. It was even mentioned in a cover story 'Reeling in the Rainbows' in the Getaways section of the PI last year. I have a photo showing over 20 cars in the little parking area two Octobers ago. I'm surprised nobody's reported a Gray Line tour bus parked there yet ;-(

Exactly - he also gave drive times and other information, too - I've already
narrowed it down I think.

Y'all need to be more careful about your "secrets".

(Kent, no need to chastise me - I already know what you'll say offlist ;-)

He must live in or near Spokane if he was at the Blue Dun.... Fatal clue...!

Let the investigation begin! :)

 Then, by backtracking Vladimir's ISP, we find out all we can about
Vladimir,
 such as where he lives.  Then we plot how far Vladimir could drives in an
 hour and half, and with any luck...  Bingo!  We identify secret lake!

 Or I could just fish the new lake I scouted out, where until 1:30 I was
the
 only person on the water, and caught fish consistently the 4 hours I was
 there...  Okay, they were small...  And stocked...  Decisions... Decisions

 Just kidding Vladimir...  There are no "Secret Lakes"  only "Favorite
 Lakes", and I'm glad you found one.  Having a body of water that you know
 like the back of your hand is like money in your pocket, especially in the
 winter.

 Have a good one
