Wayne Kruse

My name is Wayne Kruse and as the dean of Northwest outdoor writers (over 30 years in fishing/hunting journalism) it's my pleasure to help you enjoy the traditional outdoor activities that make up such an important part of the lifestyle in this beautiful corner of the country.


Born and raised in Puget Sound country, and an avid fisher/hunter/mushroomer/clam digger/you name it, I've done it all and try to bring you the latest, most current information on who's doing what, where, in the tall and uncut around here, and how best to go about it.

It's nice to meet you, and I hope to see you on the river one of these days.


Time again to dig for razor clams

Generally speaking there are two distinct types of razor clam diggers: the spring and summer folks who prefer laid-back, daylight digs with warmer temperatures, better weather and lower surf, and the fall-winter people who like edgier action,... [More]

The 10 top recreational fishing prospects for the fall

Columbia chinook worth the drive

So the Lake Wenatchee sockeye season is closed, and the chinook season in Marine Areas 9 and 10 is closed, and woe is us. But making lemonade, it simply gives the saltwater fishermen more time to drive a little farther. Down to buoy 10, for... [More]





Wenatchee sockeye season nearing an end

If you blinked, you may have missed it. The one-week-plus Lake Wenatchee sockeye season, that is. At the time of this writing, the fishery was tentatively scheduled to end Friday. Or maybe sooner, depending on the recreational catch rate. [More]





Well-traveled warriors a treat

The fish are almost 500 miles from saltwater when they get there, to Lake Wenatchee. They have scrambled up and over ladders at four dams on the Columbia, evaded seals, sea lions and other predators, navigated their way, somehow, through water... [More]
