Re: lake chelan get together

The Ellensburg Fly Tying Expo was scheduled a week earlier than in the past this year. It's the same weekend as the kokanee derby so I won't be driving up. If there's a kokanee derby next year I will attend. I've been wishing to get to Chelan for a couple of years now.

Re: Pete Lake, Alpine Lake

I fished Pete a time or two back when I was a hiker. This was our Friday night camping spot when we were on the way to Spectacle for brookies. We'd leave work, driver over to the parking spot and hike to Pete.

Re: Open seat

Aaron, the current Wednesday report has some wind to it. You might keep an eye on it and see if it gets revised to less.

Re: Downrigger Mount

It would be easier to sell a fiberglass boat that wasn't hacked up. I'd get a mount fabricated or a "rube goldberg" mount before I'd take a saw to a boat.

Re: Tribes release new news on COHO...

Isn't the reason the tribes want to not have a season for coho is it lets them catch more chinook. Has to do with the number of ESA bycatch before the season gets closed.

Does the Lake Chelan state park have a docking area or do the boats have to be pulled out after returning from fishing every day?
