Squaw Creek shut down

The web site says it may reopen 1/2021

The fishing should be amazing with the closer.

Until everyone hits it all at once as soon as it opens and then pounds it to death for 3-4 months strait.

Hell yeah!

Like a drunken prom date

EXACTLY!

Don't hold your breath. They are just teasing you. It's not safe you will catch the Covid.

Meh, overrated lake

The wording is “may” reopen. Unless there is a lot of complaining they probably will not open again.

If they do open again, you may be able to walk across the lake on the tilapia.

I hope they keep it closed , at least to tournaments, that poor lake gets pounded early in the year.

They should limit the boats to 50 a day and increase fee to $100 a boat

There wouldn’t be 50 boats if they charged $100. Lol

I'll bet employees will fish rhere while its closed,...

Let's not get carried away here.

LOL, if you would take me and teach me how to fish it I may have a better opinion of the lake.

Where are you going to patrol now wiith Squaw being shut down? Portland or Seattle???

As long as their are any restrictions imposed by the State or Federal government in the name of Covid they will use that as an excuse to keep the lake closed.

Sounds like a lot of commies on here.

job perks

The fishing would improve and $100 isn't that much money, so I would bet it would stay booked far in advance...

Maybe they should just open it up to Kayaks like Wheeler branch ?

$3 a day is too much..... I like free.

there is nothing free anymore if there is a demand for it.

The “problem “ with Squaw Creek having too many 2 to 2 1/2 pound fish may not overfishing, it may be under fishing. When 50 boats a day can go out there and catch 50 to 100, 2 - 2 1/2 pound fish, maybe it indicates there are too many fish of that size in the lake and they need to come out. I think the problem is there are so many fish that size in the lake 100 boats a day taking out 10 at a time wouldn’t make a dent. With the large number of 2 to 2 1/2 pound fish it is difficult for any fish to get much larger.

I am 75 now. Have my Senior Pass for Federal Parks. Corps of Engineers ramps any where in the country are free. Love it. 😎

You must be on crack!!!! $100!?!? To catch 2 1/2 pounders? $30 is extremely too expensive to fish that overrated lake. $100 and no one would ever fish that POS. You must be rolling in the cash.

It's worth a $100 bucks if I knew I wasn't going to get shot if I left my headlights on at the ramp

Where else can you go and catch 100 fish during Christmas break? Id pay $100 no problem to do that. Shoot I paid a guide $500 one time to take me out on Lake Fork and we caught 3 fish. $100 is a bargain! IMO!

I love that lake for numbers and feel the current cost is about right. I wouldn't pay $100 for the experience however. I find it hard to believe anyone would call it a POS. I'm a terrible fisherman and always catch 25-40 fish in a day there. I HATE the morning line, but it moves relatively quickly and usually everyone is friendly. Unlike some other public ramp areas. I can prove the lake is great. I can't catch fish anywhere else most of the time. LOL!

Must be nice

Anyone thought of starting one of those petitions to get them to open back up? probably wouldn't work but you never know!

Joe is going to send me $2k for every person in my household, I am bout to be rich!!

The universal living wage is coming

To get it you’ll just have to give up any retirement accounts or savings lol.
Sounds like a deal

After I run out of ammo.

I would prob pay 200 to be on that pond today. Bet the bigs are chewin!

The day it was snowing I would have...

you wipe your a** with $200

"Luminant has delayed the reopening of Squaw Creek until October 8th, 2021 at a minimum with a validation of this date in September 2021 based on current COVID-19 protocols/projections."

You would still need a guide lol.
