Don't Want To Put Up With The Crowds On Black Friday, Then Go Fishing

Black Friday Fishing Opener Lakes
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife will close fishing Nov. 25 on six year-round-open lakes in southwest Washington so that crews from the Mossyrock and Goldendale fish hatcheries can stock each with 2,000 extra big rainbow trout averaging 1-1/4 pounds each. The lakes will re-open to fishing the day after Thanksgiving, on Friday, Nov. 29.
