Failor Lake, WA

Checking stock reports we heard that Failor gets some nice fish too. We hadn't fished it yet and unlike Sylvia it is only open seasonally. Ventured up there using the same techniques as Sylvia. Most productive spots were straight out from the dam but near the other bank and all of that south shore about 100 yds out.
