Walleye fishing on Potholes Reservoir has been amazing using blade baits. The best way to do this is by culling in 44 to 56 feet of water. The Rainbow Trout fishing is also really hot right now. Trout up to 28 inches have been landed behind the MarDon Office this past week. And we are hearing reports of trout being caught off Medicare Beach as well.

With no ice in the Lind Coulee arm of Potholes Reservoir boaters are reporting good yellow perch action. The surface water temperature has been reported around 40 degrees.

All the seep lakes below O'Sullivan Dam on the Columbia National Wildlife Refuge will open to fishers on April 1, 2014. The Refuge Lakes close on October 1 each year and Warden Lake Opens April 26, 2014. All other seep lakes are open year round.

Stop by the Tacoma RV Show March 20-23. MarDon Resort will be in booth number 918 all weekend. 509) 346-2651
