The catfish have come few and far between recetly and after fishing on Sunday we found out why.

We need your help to bring back the channel catfish back to Hart's Lake. The Washington Dept of Fish & Wildlife stocked the lake for many years but recently discontinued due to a conservation group not wanting them planted in other pierce county lakes. The channel cats pose no harm and do not reproduce so the only way to continue to have them is to let the state know we want them back. You can email Larry Phillips a biologist with Washington state at [email protected] or mail a letter to 600 Capitol Way N. Olympia, WA 98501-1091.

If anyone is interested I've also created a facebook page Hart's Lake Channel Catfish - Let's bring them back.
