I hope you can make it to the Red Barn event about invasive species in Washington waters on July 22nd from 6 to 8 p.m. in Leavenworth. Species like northern pike and zebra mussels threaten our local waterways salmon runs and you can learn more about your role in keeping them out of our waters. There will be details on the watercraft decontamination station that the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife uses to keep zebra mussels at bay. You can also see the pike suppression boats that the Chelan PUD and the Coville Tribe use to capture northern pike on Lake Roosevelt. I will provide links to a video I did aboard the Colville Tribe’s pike suppression boat when I joined them for a day of gillnetting pike earlier this year. I also fished with guide Kevin Witte for pike on Lake Roosevelt, and I will be at the Red Barn event to share what I learned about sport fishing for northern pike, and the rewards program. This will all take place at the Wenatchee River Institute, 347 Division St. in Leavenworth. You can get more details at wenatcheeriverinstitute.org. I hope to see you there.
