I believe that area is called the "trench" or "Mack Bar", yes.

One thing you can do is go to the Member tab, pull up the GPS hot spots for lake Chelan, and then use the filter tool to just select hotspots for lakers, and narrow it to 4-5 stars as there are a lot of hot spots in there.

That is known as the "Mack Bar" runs from Party Point down past Rocky point and holds good numbers of fish. The trench is located in front of the State Park

Taking advantage of the hot spots Mike Carey mentioned is the best advise. just like he said, you can filter, and hot spots are linked to the original report.

I'm deferring to Zack!

One of these days I need to mark on a map all the various location names for Chelan.
