I can’t believe how fast this spring went

by. It’s now summer and I hope time

slows down a bit; at least till winter is

here. I’d like to thank Bob Wolfe for step-

ping in to pinch hit for Michael T. Williams at

our last meeting. Michael T. had some bad

luck with Amtrak getting back from a trip to

California and Bob had a great “ready to

present” program on Fishing in NE Oregon.

Some of the waters he talked about would

make a good club outing at some point in

the future.

At our last meeting we held the Casting for

Recovery (CFR) Raffle. Over $1,400 dollars

were raised to provide money for women to

attend a CFR retreat. This is a program that

provides support for women who are recov-

ering from breast cancer. It’s great that our

club was able to help in this very worthwhile

effort. A big thank you to Kathy McCartney

and Katherine Paiva (and others in our club)

for making this happen!

We’ve had a number of wonderful outings so

far this year with many more on the way. I

wasn’t able to attend the High Cascade

Lakes outing but heard some fish were

caught on Crane Prairie and Lava Lakes

and the group had a great camping experi-

ence. I’m planning on trying for some small

mouth bass fishing on the Umpqua River trip

with the Lower Umpqua Flycasters. Rick

Diggs deserves a big thank you for getting

so many outings on the calendar again this

year!

The warm, summer months finds many of us

doing various types of fishing. This is when

I head for Oakridge to fish the smaller

streams up there (Salmon Ck., North fork of

the Middle Fork, etc.) that flow into the Mid-

dle Fork of the Willamette. If anyone is in-

terested in tagging along, give me a call. I

do know of a few holes that consistently pro-

vide small, native rainbows.

This summer we’ll go outside for the follow-

ing two general meetings: “Night on the

River” in July and our summer picnic in Au-

gust. These get togethers are always a

great time to fish, picnic, and get to know

others in the club. Look for details on these

events in the newsletters.

At our board meeting last week, we decided

to change our meeting location starting in

January, 2015. While the Vet’s Club has

some good amenities, we have found an-

other venue (Wesley United Methodist

Church, 1385 Oakway Rd.) for the same

cost that will be quieter, provide better park-

ing, and provide other advantages. The only

downside is that we’ll have to switch our

meetings (board and general) from Wednes-

day to Thursday night. I did a quick poll at

the last meeting and found that the change

will have minimal effect on our membership.

Have a great summer and hope to see many

of you at “Night on the River.”

Tight knots!

T he Casting for Recovery Fly Box and Spey Plate

Raffle was held June 25th at the scheduled

Cascade Family Fly Fishers' meeting. The win-

ning ticket holder for the CFR Fly box was Bill Bur-

leigh and the winning ticket holder for the framed

spey fly was Mike Ayres. The fly box was hand-

finished, etched and donated by Kathy McCartney

and the beautiful spey fly was tied, framed and do-

nated by Tony Torrence. A big THANK YOU to The

Cascade Family Fly Fishers for the dozens and doz-

ens of flies that were donated and also to Jim and

Donna Teeny, Jay Nicolas, Idlewilde Flies, Thomas

Austin, Pat Kehoe, and many more nameless tiers for

their generosity in donating flies for the raffle.

A HUGE "Thank you" to all of you who purchased

tickets! Without you (Cascade Family Fly Fishers,

Damsel Flies and the general public) there would be

no raffle. Thank you Katherine, Trese, Michelle, Roz,

Janet, Maryam and anyone else who spent the time

and effort of selling tickets at the Cascade Meetings,

Damsel Fly Meetings and the Wooden Boat Show.

Also, thanks to Chris Daughters for selling tickets

online on the Caddis Fly Blog. Everyone did a great

job and, with ticket sales and donations, the fly box

and spey plate has generated $1510 for the Casting

For Recovery, Southern Oregon Retreat. That is awe-

some!

In case you missed your opportunity to buy tickets

this year, Bill Burleigh has generously offered to do-

nate the fly box and many of the flies back to the

next Casting for Recovery raffle. Thank you so much,

Bill! The Casting For Recovery retreat is a 2 1/2 day

annual retreat held at the Big K Ranch in Elkton for

14 Oregon women with breast cancer. It is a life

changing experience for them and for any volunteer

lucky enough to be a part of it. Thank you again to

everyone who took the time to help out!

M ike Diehl won the bidding for my trip on the McKenzie at the 2013 CFF Auction and asked Ken to accompany him. Neither Mike nor Ken

had ever floated nor fished the section of the McKenzie from Meadow Campground at Blue River to Silver Creek so that’s where we went for their trip. I was designated as the person to shuttle the vehicles. After launching the boat at the Blue River launch site, I left Mike and Ken at the launch site and headed down river to the take out at Silver Creek to drop off my rig and trailer and take Mike’s Subaru back to Blue River and begin the trip. I made the first part of the shuttle great, parked the rig and trailer and got into the Subaru put in the key, all dash lights flashing but when I turned the key, nothing happened. I depressed the brake, nothing. I couldn’t find “park” or “neutral” so I asked one of the guides who was launching at Silver Creek if he knew how to start a Subaru and he and I tried all sorts of other strategies, nothing happened. I had left my cell phone in the boat at Blue River so I decided to run back up to the put-in and ask Mike. I was already embarrassed and when I asked Mike what I had missed to get the car started, he smiled and said “…you have to put in the clutch.” I really hadn’t even noticed that the car had a clutch or that it was a stick shift. Now I was really embar-rassed and recalled it had been years since driving a stick shift and hadn’t given the clutch a thought. So rather than waste more time I decided to leave my rig and trailer at Blue River and get on the water. The whole episode took only 45 minutes. What a way to start the day. After launching we fished the section along the boat launch and on to the confluence with Blue River where we got into our first fish. I hooked and landed a nice native rainbow and a white fish and a little farther down Ken picked a nice 14 incher and another smaller one. Mike had a couple of takes but no real hookup. We continued on down having pretty consistent action and stopped at Finn Rock for lunch. After a hardy steak lunch with a glass of Cabernet we were back on the river heading into the infa-mous “Rock Garden.” The river was quite low and fast so fishing through the garden was not too productive espe-cially with three in the boat and all the gear for cooking we were sitting low in the water. We got hung up on a gravel bar, the anchor got wedged in a ledge, and we hit one other rock on the way through. Thanks to Mike’s help we were able to pull the boat back upriver far enough to un stick the anchor, get off the gravel bar, and bounce off the rock with no damage to the boat but my pride as an oars-man was a bit bruised. The incidences gave us some ex-

citement, laughs and energized us for the remainder of the trip. Once through the garden and the two rapids below the water slowed and we began to get consistent hookups again. When we hit the run in-front of Eagle Rock Lodge there were already four other boats fishing there, but this being one of my favorite spots in that section of the river I rowed up stream to the bottom of the riffle at the top of the run and started fishing, moving down river about 20’ at a time and every move we made more fish were caught. We stayed in the Eagle Rock run until just about dark and fi-nally had to leave to make it through the riffle above Silver Creek safely while there was still light. The attached pictures show Mike and Ken with some of their fish. We all had a great time, caught fish, enjoyed the excitement provided by the river and made it through dry, safe and happy.

I would guess that if we all gave it some thought

we all would have a number of really special

things that we would like to do prior to cashing in

the chips. My recent trip to Kodiak Island, Alaska was

one of those items on my bucket list. I had been to

Alaska many times while in Coast Guard and on trips

with my wife Thelma, but I could never convince the

Coast Guard to assign me to Station Kodiak. Having

heard about the great fishing, wildlife, and scenery

on Kodiak Island from nearly every fellow coastie I

had spoken with over the years, it became an obses-

sion with me and onto the bucket list it went. Finally

this spring Thelma got tired of hearing me whine

about never getting the chance to go to Kodiak and,

bless her heart, she said “go”. As my personal trip

planner she was excited to make the arrangements,

schedule flights, give me lists about what to take, and

of course motherly advice about conduct. After

about a half hour on the computer she had my trip

signed, sealed and ready to deliver me to Kodiak.

The selection of the resort at which I would stay was

an interesting process. I had spoken to many resort

reps at the Eugene Boat and Sport Show over the

years and had a pretty good idea where I wanted to

fish and my selection came down to two lodges the

Larsen Bay Resort, and Kodiak Adventures

Lodge. I’ve always been quite cautious about the

folks that go a little over the top in promoting what

they have for sale. Things like “We have the best” this

or that. Or “You will catch no fish under 15

pounds”. Or “We have the best guides in

Alaska”. What sold me on Kodiak Adventures Lodge

was that it was modestly promoted and sounded truly

sincere. Owned and operated by a family. Two boys

one 18 and the other 16 who rotated daily between

being the bait person on the boat, and being the do-

mestic assisting the mother preparing meals, clean-

ing cabins, tending the garden, assisting incoming

and exiting visitors, and helping wherever

needed. The “Mom” was in-charge of the accommo-

dations, planning and preparing the meals, assisting

with the preparation of the fish for shipping, and

keeping the cabins warm and comfortable for the

guests. The father was the mechanic, the guide both

for fishing and bear hunting, the fillet person, and

the story teller. It sounded like I would become just

one of the family when I got there. And so it was.

The few photos I included with this article are de-

signed to provide a brief visual tour of Kodiak Adven-

tures Lodge, some of the results of the fishing experi-

ence, the scenery in which the lodge is nestled and an

E stablished in 1915, East Lake Resort is one of the premier fishing resorts in Central Oregon just min-utes away from Sunriver, and less than an hour

away from Bend, Oregon. East Lake Resort is in Newberry National Volcanic Monument within the Deschutes National Forest and is best known for its, trophy German Brown Trout, Kokanee fishing, its world class fly fishing, along with its scenic vistas and beautiful lakeside location. The resort is one of the few full service fishing resorts in Central Oregon, offering cabin rentals, boat rentals, moorage for boats, an RV Park, tent sites, fuel and propane sales. The resort also has canoe rentals, kayak rentals, a gift shop, general store, guided fishing trips, and a cafe. The gift shop is full of souvenirs, apparel, specialty foods, and unique merchandise that can only be found at East Lake. The general store is fully stocked with groceries, fishing tackle, fishing licenses, camping supplies, sundries, ice cream, candy and snacks, along with everything that you may have forgotten to bring. The store has a knowledge-able staff and all of the fishing tackle and flies that you would need to be successful fishing at East Lake. If you don’t want to rent a cabin, the resort has an RV Park or tent sites. East Lake also has two forest service camp-

grounds that are managed by Hoodoo Corp.

East Lake Resort is one of finest lake fisheries in Oregon, East Lake has trophy Brown Trout, Kokanee, Rainbow Trout and Atlantic Salmon. Because of it's deep weed beds and incredible hatches East Lake is also regarded as one of the best fly fishing lakes in the country and was one of the host bodies of water for the 2012 Fly Fishing Na-tional Championships, several of these world class fly fish-ermen described East Lake as being "ridiculously good". If you need information on the US Forest Service Campgrounds on East Lake, please call Hoodoo Corp at 1-877-444-6777, or you can visit their website at hoo-

doo.com. Memorial Weekend through September.

Setting right behind Paulina Lake in Newberry Crater is one of Central Oregon's best kept secrets and a wonderful fishing destination, East Lake. Jim Teeny developed his famous Teeny Nymph in the 70's when the lake produced

some big bows, brookies and browns.

The brookies are rarely planted anymore and the rain-bows are more along the normal stocker size, but the lake is a sleeper on big browns and nice sized kokanee. There are also some Atlantics, but in lesser numbers. The lake record brown of over 22 Lb. was caught back in the early

80's on a small jig.

East Lake differs from her sister Paulina Lake in that probably 20-30% of the lake is fairly shallow with depths

under 30. These productive weed beds are perfect protec-tion for the tui chub and other young baitfish that the big browns forage on. Fly fisherman do extremely well as do

trollers and bait fisherman.

When the lake ices-off sometime in May the action is best in the shallows. Usually an area opens up in front of the resort from the hot springs and spreads east to the cliffs. You want to work the shallows for all your worth. The higher oxygenated water and warmest temps

will be found in the top 20 feet. This can be a killer drill.

In the fall, when water temps drop, the shallows again become the prime area to fish for all species. The browns will be staging before they "false" spawn and can often be

seen in the shallows chasing after the kokanee or chubs.

Last but not least is the beauty and wildlife of the area. Easy to moderate hiking is readily available in the immedi-ate area. Many times we have seen osprey and bald ea-gles dive to pick off an unsuspecting kokanee or rainbow near the surface. We have actually had them dive after our hooked trout as they roll on the surface during the fight. Bears, porcupines and deer are common sights for most of the summer. That reminds me, be sure to keep

your food as far away from the bears as possible.

Carolyn Roth will be organizing easy to moderate hikes, in the immediate area for those who might not

be fishing.

Bring your own favorite food and a chair for a dinner get together at Rod and Carolyn’s Cabin, “The Pintail”

at 6 p.m. on Saturday the 16th.

To get the latest information on what is working specifi-cally, you should contact the resort 541.536.2230. You can also rent cabins, boats or stay in one of the three campgrounds that surround the lake. This is a lake that

should be on your short list of trophy brown destinations!

How To Fly Fish At East Lake (Cont’d)

F ly fishing is the #1 method of catching fish at East Lake. East Lake is a perfect lake for fly fishing. It has a weed bed that more or less circles the lake

and has an abundant fish population that love to eat the bugs in these weed beds. If you know the basics of fly fish-ing, you can have a blast at East Lake. Fly fishing from the shore or wading in, in all honesty, is not the most productive way to fly fish the lake. You really need to be in a float tube or boat to reach the back side (lake side) of the weed bed: this is where the fish are lo-cated and are feeding. An average fly fisherman with average skills is going to catch somewhere between 30-70 (historically) fish a day from a float tube or boat. A person that has never even seen a fly rod will more than likely catch 10-15 his first day out. Even if you don't own a fly rod you can use a regular spin casting rod/reel and have almost the same results as the fly fisherman. Ask the staff inside the East Lake Resort store how to do it and they will let you in on the secrets! What flies work best at East Lake? Several flies do espe-cially well, but without question, East Lake is all about Calli-baetis. Day in and day out, different versions of the Calli-baetis haul in more fish than any other fly. East Lake is known for an almost constant hatch of Calli-baetis from dawn to dark. A natural colored, or soft tan, seems to work well, and adding a bead head to it will en-sure you are going to have supper tonight. Other forms of Callibaetis you need to have in your fly box should include a Cripple, Spinner and emerger’s in tan and darker brown colors. Size 14 is perfect for most flies

Other flies that are known to haul them in Stalcup's caddis fly larva (tan and brown colored), Gold-ribbed Hare's Ear, Flashback nymph, Bead Head Pheasant Tail, Wooly Buggers (Black and Dark Green...sometimes with a little red mixed in), Parachute Adams, Male Adams, Green Carey Specials, Griffiths Gnat, Blue-winged Olive

Dun.

Come join us for a day or for the scheduled outing.

2014 Erma Bell Trip Report by Glenn Miller

W e had another great trip this year to the middle

Erma Bell Lake. There was an excellent turn-

out; the most that have ever gone on this trip.

Those attending year were Fred Acosta, Don Quinton, Bill

Burleigh, Glen Neal, Bob Wolfe, Joe Moody, John Christen-

sen, Mike Hopper, Curtis Erickson, Pete Szekely, Susan

Primak, and myself.

The fishing was as good as ever as the rainbows were

plentiful and seemed to be a bit bigger and fatter than nor-

mal. The average fish was 11-12 inches and a few were

caught in the 15-16 inch range. This lake is not stocked

and depends on successful reproduction by the wild rain-

bows. I think the two catch limit helps keep the population

at very sustainable levels.

For those that spent the night, we had a great group dinner

and breakfast and if it wasn’t for the four miles of hiking we

did each day, we’d have probably come back a few pounds

heavier. The weather was also good and the mosquitoes

were tolerable. Another great CFF outing with more great

ones to come!

ABOUT THE CASCADE FAMILY FLY FISHERS

The Cascade Family Fly Fishers (CFF) is an independent, not for profit, fly fishing organization open to the pub-

lic and is an affiliate of the National Federation of Fly Fishers (FFF). Annual dues are $25.00 for an individual

or family membership, $15.00 for a student, and $10.00 for those who live outside Lane County. Membership

Board meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month and the general membership meetings on

Articles found in the CFF newsletter may be reprinted in other non-profit publications without the express per-

mission of the CFF so long as full acknowledgement is given to CFF and the author or authors.

Trademarks and/or logos may appear in the “Trading Post” section of the newsletter, (which is the club mem-

ber’s free of charge classified section), but this does not give any proprietary rights to the company. Should a

for-profit company wish to place an ad in the newsletter for a product or service, it can purchase a 1/8th page

for $20.00 or a 1/2 page for $50.00. All rates are per issue and inserts will be considered. Ad and article

deadlines are midnight, the second Sunday of the month.
