5/31/2011 2:40:00 PMA guide is not needed on the lake or upper river,just on lower river(from lake to the ocean).A tribal license is needed for the lake, $35 for the year, I think it's $10 for a couple of days.You also need an annual boat permit, another $10. Neither is required on derby day, with purchase fo derby ticket.It's a good way to try the lake out, past reports on Lake Quinault should give you a heads up on fishing there. Thanks for wishes of good luck, we'll need it! bob r

5/31/2011 5:22:00 PMThanks for the report Bob. Eight in a day is a very good day on Lake Quinault in my book. I was skunked there this weekend but I was fishing from a dock and along the shore. You're trolling spoons with a downrigger, do you tip it with a worm? We normally are fishing the north shore from Kiwanis east. If you don't mind sharing, what do you find to be some good spots around the lake.
Maybe we'll see you out there some time. Thanks, Paul.
