Gordon: When are your Fly fishing courses scheduled this spring? Am
toying with the idea of doing an amateur macro invert study aimed
specifically at flyfishers and thought it might be a follow on after
your course.

I'm not familiar with the farm pond on the old Pine Mtn Ranch, but I'm
interested. Can you give us more information. How big is the pond, what kind
of fish, who owns the property now, have you fished it, etc. etc.

It may be necessary to find an alternative to Shevlen Pond for our Parks and
Rec casting classes in any event regardless of the condition of the dam. The
1999 fishing regs state that the pond is open to anglers 17 years of age and
younger. Although we are not actually fishing during the class (we cast yarn
with no hooks) it still wouldn't look good to have a large group of mostly
adults crowded around the only "Kids Fishing" spot in Deschutes County. I'm
not quite sure where we should attempt to conduct our classes, I've thought
that Wards Ponds across from the Bend Golf Club would be a good location
except that I wouldn't expect Ward Construction to be so generous as to
grant us permission to use their private property for our classes. I can see
them being very nervous about liability and all that. I am very eager to
hear any suggestions about other alternatives.
As to your kids angling clinic the new "age regulation" on Shevlin Pond is
obviously not an issue for you, but if the pond is out of commission due to
the dam a good alternative would be one of the quarry pits in the high lakes
area (the ones near Cultus lake would be my choice). ODFW stocks these
anyway and I'm sure that for the kids clinic they might even bump the number
up from what they normally put in. The only problem that I would see is the
logistics of transportation.

Gordon -- You may have read in the Bulletin last month a news item
stating the Shevlin pond dam had been undermined with a major leak. The
ponds water level has dropped about 18". The Bend Metro Parks District
maintenance crews are planning to dig out the old dam and replace it with a
more extensive one. They also plan to replace the foot bridge on the
opposite end. This entails draining the pond.
I have talked to the Parks manager of maintenance. He is reluctant to say
they will have the work done in time for the KK Kids Angling Clinic, April
20-23. There is the press of other Park maintenance and the unpredictable
weather that can affect their work schedule.
When do you normally use the pond for your spring casting classes ? If the
pond is not filled by April 20 does it create a significant inconvenience
for you?
It will have a major affect on the Kids' Angling Clinc as the climax of the
day is when our volunteers take the kids fishing in the ODFW stocked pond.
Rescheduling to a later date may not be possible with some of the schools.
I have written a letter to Parks to that effect.
If the pond repairs not being completed in time for your classes creates a
problem, you may want to write them a letter, too.

The second half...
It was pretty slow at Lower Palisades too. Kerry Reed, the friend I brought,
landed the first fish, a whitefish. I followed with two whitefish. That was
it for the day. We had a blast anyway, and spent the last half hour or so
talking. Decided on a couple of places for future outtings..TBA. *g*
And...we will be getting a new member. Kerry enjoyed the company of everyone
present, and will be joining the club. ;^)

We went to the Crooked River. We met at Lone Pine after our breakfast. 7
flyfishers met for breakfast and 5 of us made it to the river. I was joined
on the Crooked by Dick Mayer, Dave McNall, Linda Foote, and a friend of
Linda. I think there may have been three or four strikes but nobody landed a
fish. After about two hours the group decided to head upriver to Lower
Palisades. I had some other things to attend to so I headed home at this
point. Maybe Dave, Dick, or Linda can tell us if there was any better
fishing at Lower Palisades.
I know that Linda had some strikes to a large orange strike indicator. I
wish I had tried a stimulator or small Clarks stone. Sounds weird but you
never know. I did try an egg fly for a short while but I'm not sure that I
was fishing it as effectively as I could have.
The river level was about 300cfs and the water clarity was no worse than
normal

at the south Sherries in Bend (near the southern most Albertson's in Bend).
That is Shari's Restaurant he is talking about.

This is just a reminder, there will be a COF outing on New Years Day. We will be meeting at the south Sherries in Bend (near the southern most Albertson's in Bend). I will be there at 9:00 am. It probably will take about 45 minutes to an hour to have breakfast so we should end up leaving for the river by about 10:00. I was leaning toward the Crooked as the preferred destination with Fall River as another option. I just heard from Doyle that they (the people that control the Dam) may be bringing the flow up on the Crooked rather dramatically on the first. Right now the outflow is about 220 cfs (very good fishing level) but the inflow is at about 800. We will have to see if the folks that run the dam feel the need to dump some water soon. if they do we probably should head for Fall River. Or...what about Tumalo Creek???
If you have any questions you can email me personally at: gordon@... , or you could hit "Reply" and address your comments and questions to the list; maybe you have another idea of a place to go fishing.
Remember to get a 1999 fishing license between now and the first.
Thanks Dave. That's what I was wondering. I hadn't heard about any real good
catching
from ANYbody. Interesting about the numbers...a bunch of us thought they SHOULD
have
been real high this year...sounds like they were.
Thanks again!
PS Couldn't find any "stats" on the ODFW site.

raven, i've heard that the run was above aver (the # i heard from a fellow
fisher was
25k) however, the catch stats were below aver as the white muddied the main
stem
until after nov 10th and then the bulk "shot" up to the schuutes in large
#'s - i don't
think it was as good as any of the last couple yrs but i spent only 1 day
and it was

Public's Right of Way on Rivers Expanded
By Gary Spencer
New York Law Journal
Friday, December 18, 1998
ALBANY -- In a landmark ruling that could
vastly
expand the public's right of access to
rivers on
private land, the Court of Appeals
yesterday
adopted a new "recreational use" test for
determining when waterways are navigable
and
therefore beyond the power of private
landowners to
close.
Although the age-old common law standard
was
based on a river's capacity for commercial
use in
carrying goods to market, the Court held
that
changing times and changing attitudes
toward
environmental preservation called for a new
test in
which recreational boating alone will be
enough to
establish a public easement.
"Rivers, long-recognized as unique natural
resources, are no longer primarily subjects
of
commercial exploitation and gain but
instead are
valued in their own right as a means of
travel,"
Judge Carmen Beauchamp Ciparick wrote in
The
Adirondack League Club Inc. v. Sierra Club,
No.
170.
The case focused on a 12-mile stretch of
the South
Branch of the Moose River that crosses a
58,000-acre private preserve owned by the
400-member Adirondack League Club, which
has
barred non-members from using the stream
for
more than a century. But it should give
canoeists
and other recreational boaters greater
access to
streams throughout the state. State
conservation
officials, who supported the recreational
use test,
estimated it could affect 20,000 miles of
waterways
in New York.
Sierra Club attorney Philip H. Gitlen, of
Whiteman
Osterman & Hanna in Albany, said, "This
will have
a huge impact on the recreational resources
that
are available to the public," particularly
in the
six-million-acre Adirondack Park, which is
"a
patchwork of public and private
landholdings."
All major rivers in the park cross private
land at
some point, most of them repeatedly, and he
said
the ruling can be used to open the rivers'
full
lengths to the public for the first time.
The case has been watched closely by
landowners
and conservation groups throughout the
nation, he
said, and he predicted it will serve as a
model for
other states.
Neil F. Woodworth, counsel for the
Adirondack
Mountain Club, said the ruling recognizes
the
importance of rivers in modern society.
"New
Yorkers own about 450,000 canoes and
kayaks,"
he said. "The predominant use of rivers
today and
going into the next century is
recreational."
He said another important aspect of the
ruling is its
recognition of the public's right to
portage around
obstacles in a stream, the first time the
Court of
Appeals has ruled on the issue. "That is a
huge
victory for the recreational paddler," he
said.
TEST CASE
The case began in June 1991 with a trip
down the
Moose River by five Sierra Club members in
two
canoes and a kayak. The Sierra Club was
looking
for a test case and it informed the
Adirondack
League Club (ALC) of the trip in advance.
When the trip was over, the ALC sued the
Sierra
Club and the five paddlers for trespass and
sought
a declaration that the river was not
navigable, which
would permit it to keep the stream closed.
New
York State and the Adirondack Mountain Club
intervened as defendants in support of
public
access.
The Appellate Division, Third Department,
ruled on
summary judgment that the river was
navigable,
holding that use of a waterway by
recreational
boaters was relevant evidence of its
capacity for
commercial use. Environmental groups hailed
that
ruling as a major victory.
The Court of Appeals went further
yesterday,
holding that recreational use alone is
sufficient to
establish a river's navigability.
"[E]vidence of a
river's practical utility for transport
need not be
limited to evidence of its capacity for the
movement
of commercial goods," it said.
The Court was unanimous in adopting the new
standard, but split 4-1 in reversing the
award of
summary judgment. The majority found there
was
conflicting evidence regarding the Moose
River's
suitability for recreational use.
Dissenting Judge
Joseph W. Bellacosa argued that the river's
navigability was clearly established and
that the
ALC's suit should be dismissed.
In the majority opinion, Judge Ciparick
said
adoption of the recreational use test was
consistent with the Navigation Law and with
the
Court's common law precedents, which "have
as
their touchstone the idea that a river must
have
'practical usefulness to the public as a
highway for
transportation.' "
She said the "paramount concern is the
capacity of
the river for transport, whether for trade
ortravel."
The ALC was represented by John S. Marwell
of
Shamberg Marwell Hocherman Davis & Hollis
in
Mt. Kisco. The state was represented by
Assistant
Attorney General William S. Helmer; the
Adirondack Mountain Club by John W. Caffry
of
Glens Falls; the Sierra Club by Mr. Gitlen
and the
individual defendants by Robert J. Kafin of
Proskauer Rose Goetz & Mendelsohn in
Manhattan.

COURT CASES
NY Rules Rivers Through Private Land Are Open To Public
Recreation:
On December 17, the New York State Court of Appeals ruled
that rivers
flowing through private property can be open to the public
for
recreational
purposes, expanding a 130-year opinion that the public
should have access
to
rivers if they are navigable to include recreational uses as
well.
The suit involved a dispute between the private Adirondack
League
Club Inc.
and New York, the Sierra Club, and several other
environmental
organizations. The ALC contended that the twelve miles of
the South
Branch
of the Moose River running through the club's land was
private property.
The
Sierra Club countered that all of the river should be open
to the public.
To
prove the navigability of the section of the river, members
of the Sierra
Club canoed and kayaked down the river in June 1991. The ALC
sued the
Sierra
Club for trespassing.
Instead of handing down a decision on the twelve miles of
river, the NY
Court of Appeals sent the case back to the State Supreme
Court for a
trial
and ruled on the overall standard to be used in deciding
this case and
others like it. The court stated in the majority opinion:
''Although
evolving necessities and circumstances may warrant a
different emphasis
regarding a river's usefulness, the central premise of the
common law
rule
remains the same: in order to be navigable in fact, a river
must provide
practical utility to the public as a means for
transportation.''

It's a tradition, I try to go fishing on New Year's day every year. The last time a group of us met at the south Sherries at 9:00 am for breakfast and then went of to fish Fall River. I would like to set up a meeting place and possible outing destination for the up coming New Year. Any Ideas? Sherries has worked in the past because they are always open (even on New Years Day) and they are not too expensive, but I'm open to hearing about alternatives. Possible fishing locations include Fall River, the Crooked River, and the middle Deschutes.
Raven,
I don't know of any e-mail address but the phone number is 388-5085.

I managed to go fishing for a little while last Friday. Raven and I went to the Crooked River. The water level was good, higher than normal for this time of year but about what you would see during summer. I was feeling like I might be in the process of catching a cold so I didn't even put on my waders, I just fished from the bank and I only fished for a few minutes. In the short time I fished I caught a couple trout on dry flys (Griffith's Gnats). Raven put on waders and fished quite a bit longer than I did and she did quite a bit better. She used Glo Bugs (egg patterns) and caught quite a few trout in the 6 to 10 inch range. She also got a couple of nice white fish.
By the way I would like to get the word out about this list. I know that we have a few members already. If anyone knows the email address of anyone else in the club that might want to join this list please let me know (gordon@...) or invite them yourself. Two people that I don't have addresses for are Doyle Goolsby and Dave McNall (I had Dave's but lost it somehow).
If anyone has any observations of suggestions on the operation of this list please let me know.

Regal Vise (c-clamp style) for sale WITH attached waste
catcher and with xtra midge jaws (rusty in spots) for $75.
His phone number is 382-5543.
He would also like to sell his 12(?) foot Kingfisher, but
doesn't have a price set for it yet.
