Lake Stevens 8th Annual Kokanee Derby Saturday, May 20th 2017
With the Lake Stevens Kokanee Derby just around the corner many of you are wondering how the fishing has been. Overall, I would have to say that it has been fairly good, though we have seen a number of off days with the erratic Spring weather we have been having. Fish for the most part have been caught in the upper 20 feet of water or so and have been averaging 11 -13 inches with an odd one slightly larger. We have seen a few that have been pushing the pound mark lately. I am sure that it will take one that size or better to take the top prizes.
Tickets are still just $20.00 for Adults and "Free" to those 14 and under.
