Hi, I'm Dave Graybill, the Fishin' Magician!

Here is one of the many rainbow my fishing buddy Rollie Schmitten and I caught on a recent trip to Buffalo Lake.

Here you will find current information on fishing in Central Washington State.

I grew up in Central Washington and began writing about the outdoors in the mid 70s. I began broadcasting report on outdoor recreation on KOZI Radio in Lake Chelan in 1991. My reports are now carried on several radio stations and many newspapers in Washington. The reports give what’s happening and how-to information on fishing for bass, perch, walleye, trout, kokanee, salmon, steelhead and other species.
