Go past the Lake Wenatchee Campgrounds. Shortly thereafter there will be a right turn, not sure what it references, but it is obvious. There will be an old general store on the right hand side of the road and the entrance to the Fish Lake boat ramp and campground is on the other side of the road, I believe directly opposite (it's been a few years since I've been up there).

Is there another fish lake. Are the signs before or after the Lake Wenatchee signs. I saw no activity of any other fishermen on the parts of the lake I could see from the road.
