Tim Larsen shows off a nice trout.
Ice is melting all over the Potholes Recreation Area. Bank fishing with Power Bait, Pautsker's Eggs, and night crawlers with marsh-mellows are the three main baits. Canal Lake, Heart Lake, Corral Lake, Medicare Beach and behind the MarDon Resort Office are all producing nice Rainbow Trout.
Tim Larson, MarDon Guest, shows a nice February Rainbow Trout caught off the MarDon Dock with a blade bait.

We are sad to say goodbye to a dear friend. Rod Brownlee lost his fight with cancer early Sunday Morning (February 17, 2013). Rod operated Rod Brownlee's Marine Service for the last 20 years out of his shop in the Potholes Reservoir Area.
He passed peacefully while holding his sister's hand in Central Washington Hospital in Wenatchee, Washington. Rod was a great friend and he will be deeply.

The fishing in the Potholes Recreation Area this October has been just as good as we thought it would be. We experienced some rapidly cooling weather which rapidly cooled the water temperatures and really turns on the fall bite. The walleye fishers are producing limits almost daily.
Fresh News from MarDon
As Potholes Reservoir cools with incoming fall weather the fishing for all species will only get better. The bass guys are having a ball with largemouth bass at the face of the dunes. Smallmouth bass are most catchable at the rock piles in the main lake between Goose Island and O'Sullivan Dam. Potholes are now at the low water status typical for this time of year. Cover is harder for fish to locate for sanctuary. (Now is when the underwater habitat restoration project is the most valuable, cwfac.org).

It's hard to believe but the already great fishing on Potholes Reservoir will just be getting better. The perch fishing at the State Park and off the MarDon Dock has been great.
