Senator Pam Roach invites community residents to a discussion about recreational fishing on Lake Tapps. The townhall-style meeting will answer a variety of questions about fishing on the lake. Topics will include what type of fish can be caught at different times and ways to present economic opportunities related to fishing.

“Lake Tapps has always had a fish population even though it was a dry bed much of the year,” said Roach. “Fish came in via the yearly diversion from the White River. Now that we have a year-round lake we can talk about a year-round fishery.”

There isn’t an agenda for specific changes at the moment but the meeting will provide a forum to discuss future possibilities.

The meeting will be held at 7 p.m. at the Public Safety Building, 18421 Veterans Memorial Drive, in Bonney Lake.
