Thanks Gang,

Will, both lakes are low and I've stayed away from them because there are others in the area in better shape. Blue, Aeneas, Omak, Spectacle, Wannacut, the other Blue, Sidley, Lost, Beth, Beaver, and on and on. Look around and you'll find other exciting lakes in the Okanogan.
June is not too late if you fish the deeper lakes with fast sinking lines.
