Dave Law's Fishing Forecast: Tasty Walleye Near Kettle Falls on Lake Roosevelt

Last weekend, I made the haul up past Kettle Falls to do some walleye fishing with Greg Koch of the Spokane Walleye Club. We launched and fished near China Bend so I could put something tasty on the dinner table. According to folks I talked to there, the walleye fishing was phenomenal 2 weeks ago when the lake levels were much lower and the fish were more concentrated. Surprisingly, the lake is almost full pool and this means the fish are scattering or migrating into Canada. Either way, Greg knows his business, put me on ol' "Marble Eyes" and kept the fishing steady as they bit on a spinner/nightcrawler rig. Mother Nature and the threat of thunder may have ended the day, but I left with a bounty of delicate, fresh, white fillets. I went to the club website ( http://spokanewalleyeclub.com/) and copied a couple of fish taco recipes, invited the family over for dinner, and voila...Hero status for my piscatorial & culinary prowess. I owe it all to Greg, Leanne's recipe, and the hospitality of the Spokane Walleye Club.
