Check out the Puyallup Hawg Hunters or Washington Bass Association. Lot of great guys in those clubs. Oh and there is way more than salmon to chase in Washington. I'm on the east side of the state and our tournament Saturday took 27+lbs to win and 26+ for second for five fish limits of largemouth. H...
