“There are a bunch of drive to high lakes with browns in them down in southern WA. Lakes like Steamboat, Olallie, Big Mosquito, Goose, Chambers, Council, Takhlakh, etc. The browns in the hatchery system here, at least, are typically too large in the summer time to effectively stock in remote lakes so, downstream issues aside, that is one reason they weren't used more historically. I really don't know any hike-in brown trout lakes that aren't too fragile to be posting in an on-line forum.”
