Conservation
What is this fellow standing on? He is standing on a V-Structure. It is part of a stream restoration project on Brett Creek, a tributary to the North Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River, Idaho. After spring run-off in 2005 it should look like this with a pool to protect native cutthroat. Two Washington clubs and one Idaho club took part in the work.

Fishing
Kids
Day at Silver Lake, Spokane, WA  Madison Crable, right,caught this big rainbow while fishing off the dock It was so big that she needed help to hold it for the picture. For more pictures from Fishing Kids Day 2006 and the 2004-2005 event click on "Fishing Kids" link above.
Getting kids and parents out fishing is the objective of the Fishing Kids days. It is OK if they use a spinning rod and bait. Some will develop a lifetime interest in fishing, maybe even move on to fly fishing. |
