Lake Mary Fishing Guide, Chelan County, Washington

• Overview

  Lake Mary sits in Chelan County, out in Washington. The country round it is pine and birch from end to end. About 3 acres of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. Most waters listed here for Chelan County are larger. Leavenworth at 14 miles is the nearest place to stop. For a city, Bellevue is 58 miles off. No boundary runs near, so the county rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lake Mary

  Open data we checked carries no depth for this water. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Across Chelan County, recorded fish include cutthroat trout, rainbow trout, sockeye salmon and Chinook salmon. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. On Lake Mary the obvious spot is not always the productive one.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The year swings from about 22°F in December to roughly 57°F in August. Expect a real winter and a strong spring after it. The open season starts with the thaw, near enough mid April. Break-up sits around mid April on average, with the water closing again about late November. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. That shapes the year on Lake Mary.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Overnight stays are possible about half a mile out, where camping is mapped. A toilet block sits 100 yards away. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Should this one be busy, Lake Margaret is 0.4 miles off. Check the position on Lake Mary before loading the car.
