April 24th signals Opening Day for the 2010 Lake-Fishing Season here in Washington State where an estimated 300,000 anxious anglers will wet their lines in lakes and ponds stocked with millions of trout by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (or so they say!)

There are times when I’ve had the darnedest luck with catching any fish from freshwater lakes and streams. The WDFW could stock my bathtub at home and I’d still get skunked!

WDFW Inland Fish Program Manager Jim Uehara reports that more than 20.5 million trout will be stocked in lakes and streams for this year’s fishery. This includes fish planted in waters that opened earlier this Spring or are open year-round.

And don’t forget to purchase your new WA freshwater fishing license, valid April 1st 2010 thru March 31st 2011.
