The big Holiday weekend is coming up and if you haven’t made arrangements for camping, don’t despair. There are a few places that will have room for late comers and some great day trips people can take over the long weekend. Fish Lake, near Lake Wenatchee can usually squeeze a few more people into their campground here locally. Up north, the four Conconully resorts can usually find room for a few more folks on even the busiest weekend of the year. I was able to book a hotel room in Republic and plan to fish Curlew Lake. The State Park on Curlew Lake is beautiful and is often less than half full on Memorial Weekend. If you want to stay close to home, the kokanee fishing is worth the trip to Chelan, but get off the water early, before the jet and water skiers hit the lake. Beehive should be accessible by now, and Lilly and Clear lakes are providing pretty good fishing. Don’t forget the Family Fishing Derby at Fish Lake coming up on May 31st at Fish Lake. There will be a breakfast, lunch, good fishing and a ton of prizes. Contact the Cove Resort to learn more.
