Hi, I'm Dave Graybill, the Fishin' Magician!
I ran up the Okanogan and tried for smallmouth when the sockeye bite died. Didn't have much luck, but this guy smacked a top water lure near the bridge. I am going to try this again!
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.
