According to HookandBullet only Large Mouth Bass, Blue Catfish and Carp are available here. Not quite right I caught a Channel cat and several Blue Gill.


"I was getting some bait the other day at this great little baitshop in Union and the owner pulled a picture off of her board and said, "You see this....63lb Flathead caught 2 weeks ago". My response was, WOW that si a nice catch, he catch it in the Missouri....she laughed a bit and said, nope caught it in Lion's Lake in Washington on goldfish!!! I could not believe my eyes. Says he caught a 50+ pounder last year there as well. Anyone ever tried here? I have always told myself not to fish in this rinky dink places, and just stay on the river, but OH MY GOD if a 63lber is possible, why not try......may just head out there tomorrow morning for a few hours with some goldfish!" ~ posted on Extreme Catfidh
