A few do. It is worth getting out for if you can deal with the weather. Some of the biggest fish are caught this time of year for the die hards. I might get out this weekend since the weather should be ok.

Sure, clear into Dec. Just fish slow. Don't expect to drag harnesses at normal speeds.
jigs, smile blades, etc.

Going out in the morning for Walleye. Upper Columbia. Gonna go at it till 2pm or so then Sturgeon fish. IF I catch I'll post Sunday. The guy who recently starting teaching me Walleye fishing says this is the time of year to get big ones, not a lot of fish but the ones that hit tend to be bigger fish. I ate Walleye for the first time about 3 weeks ago.... man thats excellent grub right there. Real good white fish. I plan to spend "between" seasons fishing for Walleye.

Walleye fishing is the best from mid-November to end of April, at least at Lake Roosevelt. Fewer crowds, less ramp traffic. We drag jigs & live bait rigs SLOWLY this time of year.

I'm 10 minutes from the Daisy boat launch and 15 minutes from the Gifford launch. As soon as we get a bit more sun, and warmer temps, I will be on Lake Roosevelt searching for walleye and trout. Not many on the water right now, but that will change soon. Russ
