    I put this out there to the rest of the WCC as well. I have marked about 80 potential locations of ponds just from looking at google maps. Since both clubs are in the same boat (pun intended), I could use some help checking out these ponds and seeing if they have potential. They are all between Bellevue and Tacoma. If anyone has some free time that would be greatly appreciated! I'm planning on visiting all of them but ill take me a long time.

    That's actually a pretty good idea, well done.

    Sorry I missed this post.
    I'm in. Was planning to get out this weekend anyway to enjoy the good weather.
    I can do some exploring around the south end.
    Your post mentions 80 possible ponds that you have marked.
    Can you share that information or would you suggest I duplicate your efforts by using Google maps?

    I remember at the end of the combat season, we would give the property owner a $100 gift certificate for a local restaurant.
    Is something like that an option or are we going for free?
    Perhaps I'll just get the owners contact information and forward to you?
    Thanks

    I have all the spots saved on google maps. I should be able to just share the list and you can make notes and changes. Send me a PM with your gmail address. Right now, beggers cant be choosers. If we find a nice private pond I'd be willing to chip in for a $100 gift certicate for the entire year. $100 per year for a great pond seems like a good trade.
