Sprague Lake Rest Area in eastern Washington State is about 40 miles west of downtown Spokane. – photo by Joe AlexanderYou hit the Sprague Lake Rest Area about a half hour before you roll into Spokane on Interstate 90. The long, thin Sprague Lake runs roughly parallel to the interstate for about six miles.
According to the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, this is a good place to fish for rainbow trout, largemouth bass, bluegill, brown bullhead and channel catfish.
This part of the Washington state wasn’t as scenic as the western half of the state – but there wasn’t a lot of traffic and it was a pleasant drive.
