Fish Lake (Chelan County)

About 16 miles north of Leavenworth, a mile northeast of Lake Wenatchee. Access is primarily through the Forest Service approved private concession "Cove Resort". There is also some limited "walk-in" shore access on USFS land to the east end of the lake on both the north and south shores via Chiwawa River Rd. and Nat. Forest Rd. 6202. This lake produces good fishing throughout the year. Angling effort is mostly split between trout and perch. Fishing for stocked Kokanee and Rainbow Trout is best during the spring and fall months. Some nice sized Brown Trout are available at times for those willing to work at it. A good population of Largemouth Bass can provide some fun action in the spring and summer months with some very nice fish available. Perch fishing is the most popular and best in the winter through the ice, but good catches are made all year. Since 2020, Kokanee fry are stocked each spring and are now showing up in the fishery as catchable size up to 12". Anglers are encouraged to remove as many Largemouth Bass and Yellow Perch as the daily limit provides in order to decrease their competition effects on the Kokanee and trout species.

Two-pole fishing is allowed

Good for ice fishing

Shoreline access: Good - USFS property borders portions of this lake as well as one private resort that allows anglers to fish from shore and docks for a fee.

There is a $5 fee to launch watercraft and to fish from the resort fishing dock.
