I went to Wenatchee last year and couldn't find any places to fish for bass. Ended up on the bank of a random part of the Columbia and ended up with countless whitefish (or something), but no bass. Anyone have a place they know of nearby, within 30 mins?

I saw some photos of bass at Big Bow Lake near Rock Island, but I can't seem to find the actual lake on mapquest. Anyone know exactly where that is? My friend will have a boat too, so any and all fishing sites will be much appreciated, thanks.

The Wenatchee Pool can be really tough for bass. We have caught them there, but not in any great numbers. Ended up going to the next pool down and did well. Oh, and if it is a nice weekend, check out the sandbar that is just down the hill from the ampitheater......WOW

Lake Chelan is FULL of smallies.  Just don't hit it on a nice summer day, because you'll get run over by all the recreational watercraft.
