General Comments |

Water level is still low! DO NOT TRY AND USE THE NORTH LANE of the ramp, you will lose your boat trailer. Justin filled it in with some rock so when the lake does fill it will be usuable. Stocked 200,000 walleye fry few weeks ago, be a couple years before they are of eating size! We'll be electrofishing soon and we'll have some new pictures up. October netting pictures, check out these fish! To see the new netting pictures, click on Leavenworth State Fishing Lake. Also Click on the fish species and it will take you to the updated Fishing Forecast Data. |
