Best advice would be to go with a guide on Lake Roosevelt. Many good options out there. You will learn more in a day than you can in a season working it out on our own. Given that, Walleye are great eating fish. They are fished for with bottom bouncers with a worm harness attached. Another alternative is to pull crank baits such as Berkley Flicker shads, which will catch many species of fish. Fishing from a boat or shore? Other alternative waters would include Potholes reservoir, Moses Lake, Banks Lake, and a host of other lakes not far from where you are located. Good luck!

A couple of ideas to share. Mag lip 3” work for trolling. Dive to 10’. Bandit Walleye deep lures in red Chartreuse, purple rain and fire tiger colors. Lake Roosevelt has some great fishing.

When the town was originally being settled in the late 1800s, they believed that the lake water had healing properties for several illnesses and ailments. It was determined later, that the water didn't have anything in it that could be attributed to the instances of healing.
