![]() Tens of thousands of trout that escaped from a commercial net-pen operation going through financial disaster in 2007 have been thinned out, spread out or expelled with water through Chief Joseph Dam.īut that leaves many thousands still available to be caught, sometimes by the dozens. ![]() Last year’s outrageously good fishing has toned down to simply good fishing for porky rainbows in the Columbia River waters of Lake Rufus Woods. Rufus record: Rainbow trout, 29.6 pounds caught by Norm Butler of Okanogan, Wash., in 2002. Local advice: Pulses in river flows from Grand Coulee Dam can require periodic adjustments in lure or sinker weights. Hot rainbow lures: Plastic baits on a 3/8- to 3/4- ounce drop-shot rig, dark jigs, PowerBait enhanced with nightcrawlers fished off the bottom from a slip-sinker. Sweet spots: Aside from the waters around the net pens – and over an underwater island just outside the upper-most net pens – the buoy line above Chief Joseph Dam can be very good for rainbows, as well as kokanee. Other available species: Walleye, kokanee, smallmouth bass. Also, shoreline is accessible from Columbia River Road, which heads west from Highway 155 just south of Nespelem. Shore fishing: Bridgeport State Park area has good access. Smaller boats can use Tims Ranch unimproved launch just downstream from the upper net pens off the Columbia River Road that runs west from Highway 155 and the Colville Tribal Health Clinic and facilities. Anglers fishing bait must keep all legal-sized fish they catch and quit at their limits.īoat launches: Elmer City Lower Road Boat Launch near Seaton’s Grove at the upper end of Rufus Woods (8 miles above upper net pens) and Bridgeport State Park at Chief Joseph Dam are best for big boats. Notable special rules: Two-fish daily trout limit. A Colville Tribe fishing permit is required for fishing from the shore on the reservation side (north) of the reservoir. License requirements: A Washington license is valid for anglers fishing from boats. These sterile hatchery-raised trout are stocked in the reservoir by the Colville Tribe, but some of the commercial fish have escaped the pens in the past. Notable attractions: Three sets of commercial net pens starting about 16 miles downstream from Grand Coulee Dam provide a “buffet” for the lake’s huge genetically altered "triploid" rainbows. ![]() Turn! Turn! Turn! and Eight Miles High have also been combined into one ebook, Jingle Jangle Morning: Folk-Rock in the 1960s, which adds a bonus mini-book detailing the nearly 200 tracks that would be compiled into the author’s ideal 1960s folk-rock box set.Where: A 51-mile-long Columbia River reservoir behind Chief Joseph Dam and downstream from Grand Coulee. Based on first-hand interviews with folk-rock figures such as Roger McGuinn, Donovan, Judy Collins, and more than 100 others, Eight Miles High and its prequel Turn! Turn! Turn! have been updated from the original print books for their 2015 ebook versions. Detailing folk-rock from mid-1966 to the end of the 1960s, Eight Miles High portrays the mutation of folk-rock into psychedelia via California bands like the Byrds and Jefferson Airplane the maturation of folk-rock composers in the birth of the singer-songwriter movement the reemergence of Bob Dylan and the inception of country-rock the rise of folk-rock’s first supergroup from the ashes of the Byrds and Buffalo Springfield the origination of a truly British form of folk-rock and the growth of the live folk-to-rock music festival, from Newport to Woodstock. Eight Miles High: Folk-Rock’s Flight from Haight-Ashbury to Woodstock is the sequel to Turn! Turn! Turn!: The 1960s Folk-Rock Revolution, which documented the birth and heyday of folk-rock in the 1960s.
