Went up past long lake dame this evening after school to catch some pike minow to help the steel head out wound up catching a nice 2 pd male brown trout only the second one i've seen taken out of there it was a true native with all its fins and great spots i just couldnt keep it even though i wanted a picture with it real bad so i let it go hopeing that it would pass on a genration for me to catch later and scoring some points with the fishing gods. it was a good 2 hours cought about five suckers and the brown so i kept busy. had to leave because a river otter wouldnt leave me alone and it scard the fish away.

Long Lake dam is on the Spokane River. Above it would be Long Lake. Thanks for the report.

The real reason I asked where he was fishing was because I didnt think steel head came up there. I live on Long Lake....well secondary with a private dock. Thanks for the info.

Yea no stealhead this far up the river any more. You might luck into a chinok salmon that comes over the damns all the way from CDL lake. I have hooked into some fishing below the valley mall. Due to all the damns i think the furthest the stealhead can go is bellow rufus woods cant remember what they call that resivoir. Check the regs if you can our cant fish there. I know where i fish below the valley mall its all special regs which is no bait and a single barbles hook
