Weiser Pond Cleanup June 6
Club trip - Murray Reservoir, Unity Oregon June 7 (free fish day in Oregon)
Anyone can plan a trip for the club. Here is a list of possibilities which is being developed. If you would like to organize a trip for the IHFF club members, contact Royce via email and provide some information like Where, When, What, information (total #) (weather), camping info, and contact information. We'll get it posted here and help you get the message out.
JUNE
Where : Murray Lake
When: Saturday June 7th
What: Rainbow trout
Info : Free fish Day in Oregon, lots of different stillwater patterns will work on these fish. There is a limited amount of space on this body of water so sign up soon.
Organizer : Jim Gulu, contact Jim via Email
JULY
Where : Crane Falls Lake
When: July 14th
What: Largemouth Bass (trophy water)
Info : Crane falls is managed for largemouth bass and nothing under 20" can be kept. The lake is 89 acres so there should be plenty of room for 10 on the water.
This is a "no motors" lake. We don't have any idea what will work for these bass. It's suspected that they eat a lot of the trout that are planted each year.
So think in terms of large flies with sink tips, or bass flies like poppers on top. This will be windy, and hot so be prepared with lots of water, sunscreen, and any essentials.
This is a 2.5 hr trip from Weiser and an easy drive with a limited amount of well maintained gravel road.
Camping : Is available at the CJ Strike boat ramp and at Cove Arm here.
Organizer : Royce Stearns, contact via Email
AUGUST
Where : Hazard Lake
When : August ?
What : Brook Trout and Rainbow Trout
Info : Brook trout will be brook trout and will take anything that triggers them. Rainbows are also willing.
Camping : space is available at Hazard and the other lakes in the area
Organizer : TBA
