I have been reading an older Steve Raymond book "The Year of the Angler".
There is a chapter on a lake he called Hosmer lake (don't know if it's a
real name or fake) that was stocked with Atlantic Salmon. I believe it was
in Washington. Anyone know if it is real and if the Salmon are still in
there?

Hosmer lake is in the Oregon Cascades, and has both Atlantic Salmon and
Brook Trout. Its not a place one would go to seek solitude as its quite
heavily fished.

Are there any landlocked salmon left in East Lake? I got into them
one morning and caught a couple of dozen. At the time they were
trying to get rid of them and the limit was generous. We ate a few
but they were just so-so. We should have taken the grill,
We would also catch some kind of big chub or something. I whapped
them on the bottom of the boat and threw them out in the water.
Within 5 or 10 minutes here came an ofsprey to have breakfast.
