Lundquist. (YO-ZURI PHOTO CONTEST)With her sea legs firmly under her again,
Trishana Israel shows off a very nice
lingcod she caught this season. “The smile
on my face is not about the size, it’s about
not holding my cane and balancing myself
in the deep sea while battling this beast,”
she writes. (YO-ZURI PHOTO CONTEST)In early June Roger Davis set a new Washington
personal best with this 11.28-pound largemouth.
It just topped one he caught “nearly 13 years to the
day” before, and bit a Sly Guy 5.9” Redear, which
he wrote about in his May prespawn article in these
pages. (YO-ZURI PHOTO CONTEST)Northwest kokanee anglers enjoyed good fishing this
spring, including Rhonna Schnell, here with a nice

the salt yielded a first

Grahm Corcoran and his
father Mike, who also
landed one. They were
running a Mack’s Lure
Wiggle Hoochie with
chartreuse tape from

and younger brother
Zack going fishing.
