WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 8 NEW
LOCATION AND DAY. Fishing
Photography in Alaska, Jeff Gottfried. It’s
really happening. If you've ever dreamed about fishing in
Alaska, don't miss Jeff Gottfried's presentation on his trip
to the Kisaralek River. As a fly fishing instructor,
outdoor guide, founder of Educational Recreation
Adventures, head of Yamhill County's Forest Educational
Project, and as someone who has taken nine self-guided
trips into Alaska's wilderness, Jeff offers a comprehensive
tour of this SW Alaska tributary of the Kuskokwim River.
Jeff's program details a 90 mile fishing and rafting
adventure that included 10 species of fish, all caught on
flies, encounters with 8 bears, caribou, beautiful
wilderness, impassible waterfalls, etc. He calls it the
ultimate wilderness fishing experience on a river where
no guides are allowed to work.
Wednesday, October 13 Coastal Streams,
Salmon and Steelhead. Adam McNamara lives
in Newberg and guides for salmon and steelhead on the
North Coast. He fishes the Trask, Necanicum, Nehalem,
Nestucca, Wilson and many other small streams that don't
get pounded quite so much. Get ready for Fall and Winter
fishing on some new streams you’ve been ignoring.

President’s Column
Kevin Connolly This is an auspicious
month for the Chapter. We are moving our monthly
meetings to a new location, The Lucky Labrador, and a new
day, the second Wednesday of the month. See directions
below. This is also the last printed and mailed issue of the
newsletter we are sending out by U.S. mail for the majority
of the membership. We have talked about it for several
years and now it is happening. It has several advantages
that are significant. First, it obviously reduces our cost of
printing, reproduction, and postage. Secondly, it reduces
our use of paper products, every tree helps. Third, it allows
us to produce the issue with higher quality color pictures
and allows you to print out your own, much higher quality
copy if you choose.
You will get access to the newsletter by accessing the TV
TU web site which will have a newsletter section. You can
either just read it on line or you can print out your copy.
Remember our website is www.tvtroutunlimited.com.
Another nice feature is that all the old issues will be
archived each month right on the site. Josh is doing a nice
job with the website. Send him any good stuff he might
use. Continue to send David newsletter material. Seth will
send out an email announcing when a new issue is now
available. So please make sure you send him your email
address, sbisenberg@yahoo.com.
If you do not have computer access, you must contact us
by email to let us know that you want to still receive a
paper copy by mail. Ok, so you’re awake and caught that.
You can contact Seth Isenberg by mail at 5838 SW
Vermont, Portland, OR 97219. Obviously we are hoping
that we can eventually totally let go of the hard copy,
mailed version. Until that unknown date we will continue
to send out the black and white, fuzzy pictures, less than
ideally printed, low quality paper version you have been
getting. We want you to get a newsletter. You could even
ask another member to print off a copy for you using their
computer. It will take some effort for us to be doing both
and we would prefer to go fully electronic. Unless you
contact Seth by letter (or email) by September 30, you will
not receive a mailed copy of the next newsletter.
Some other thoughts….. I was recently on a business trip
to a large city and had some free time to walk around and
explore the urban environment. The one thing that stood
out above all is the amount of concrete and asphalt – the
whole area is paved over. If it was green, it was a weed or
man put it there. It made me realize that the city most of
us live in (Portland) is unique and beautiful. With the
Columbia, Clackamas and Willamette rivers in our
backyard we are blessed to have such wonderful natural
resources offering recreational opportunities and scenic

beauty. I see them almost every day and tend to take them
for granted.
Having that urban experience reminded me that Trout
Unlimited helps preserve and protect the rivers and lakes
that we sometimes take for granted. We live in a great
place, within a few hours of here we can be on some of the
best fishing waters in the United States. We (I) need to
remember to take a few extra minutes to enjoy what is in
our backyard and make sure it is protected and preserved
for us and future generations of fisherman. In the
upcoming months there will be a number of opportunities
to give back to the environment that has provided us with
so much pleasure in the past. Check out our web site for
dates, times and locations as well as later in this issue.

Fly of the Month
Craig Matthew’s X-Caddis
Alex Barkume
This month’s fly of the month is Craig Matthew’s X Caddis.
This dynamite pattern fills my requirement for “must
have” fly. It’s simple to tie – and it works! Craig Matthew’s
ties for Blue Ribbon Fly Shop in Montana and has many
killer patterns, although none better than his dry caddis
pattern. It is essentially an Elk Hair Caddis without the
hackle and a bit of antron for a trailing shuck. “Hey”, you
say – “why no hackle? The Elk Hair Caddis floats great and
catches fish”! True enough, especially on broken water
typical of rivers like the Deschutes. For years, I resorted to
the EHC, only changing sizes and color. While this works
most of the time on the less-than-selective Deschutes
redsides, I was becoming aware that it didn’t work so well
on flatter waters with tougher fish. The Madison, the
Willamette, and East Lake frustrated me. And even the
Deschutes fish would turn up a nose at times.
Friends Dick Robaugh and Mike Garoute provided some
expert guidance on this mystery. It seems that at times the
fish prefer a low riding caddis pattern to the high floating
Elk Hair. You’ll know when you get refusals or swirls
“To Conserve, Protect, And Restore North America’s Cold Water Fisheries And Their Watersheds”
2
without takes. I’ve had some frustrating times where the
fish actually appear to enjoy sinking the EHC by swirling
on it – yet won’t take it. When that happens, you need
something that rides a bit lower; the X Caddis fills the bill.
Here is the pattern:
Hook: Tiemco 100, 9300 or equivalent dry fly
hook – sizes 12 to 18
Thread: 6/0 thread, color to match the body.
Tail: Gold Z-lon.
Body: Brown, gray, olive, tan, etc. Scintilla
dubbing – color of natural
Wing: Natural deer body hair
Head: Butt ends of the wing clipped short.
1. Tie in a short shuck of Z-lon.
2. Dub a thin body of Scintilla (or beaver for gray
pattern). Make sure to keep body dubbing thin.
The natural has a very small body when seen from
the bottom of the insect. Finish up with enough
room for the wing and head.
3. Stack and comb out the under fur from a small
clump of deer hair. Tie in at the top of the body
so that the hair ends reach to the end of the hook.
It takes some practice to get the amount right, but
it is easy to tie in too much the first few flies you
tie. Try to understate the wing a bit.
4. Clip off the ends of the hair over the hook eye and
whip finish. You will have to take some care to
get thread under the hair head area. Apply a drop
of cement to finish.
Hints:
• Throw one and a half loops around the deer hair
before tightening down. Then tighten down by
pulling straight down, carefully. It will help keep
the hair from spinning around the hook.
• Try to find the hollow deer hair. Having a minimal
amount of black on the hair tips identifies it as the
hollow type. It is hard to find but floats better
than the alternative.

Dick Rohrbaugh and I were fishing a slick just below a
riffle on the Madison one evening. The fish were rising
freely to the hatching caddis flies. We took turns casting
to the rising trout. It didn’t take long to notice that Dick
was hooking fish while I was getting active refusals. The
next day, Dick and I tied up several X Caddis while
postulating why it works when the EHC does not. The
lesson really hit home later when I was fishing the
Deschutes and getting the same type of refusals. Now I
make sure and carry a good selection of the X Caddis.
While fishing upstream does work, try fishing these
downstream sometime. Cast quartering downstream
using a combination Reach and Pile Cast. This is
accomplished by making a cast, stopping the forward
momentum a bit early and then reaching upstream. The
timing on this is important to pull it off, but the result is a
fairly long drag free float. The fish often come to this long
before they come to the upstream cast.
Give it a try sometime. I think you’ll find the results pretty
phenomenal. Tight Lines, Alex

Fly Tyer’s Corner Dick Rohrbaugh
Over the years tyers have accumulated a lot of creative
ideas. In tying, like everything else, experience is always
the best teacher. Here are a new set of tips to try the next
time you tie.
Materials
You have probably heard the old adage, “dark day,
dark fly.” In part that comes from the fact that in poor or
fading light dark flies are easier to see. That is how it
affects the fisherperson. But it also affects the fish. In
poor light colors begin to fade and, when seen from below
(as the fish sees), flies are seen primarily in silhouette.
Color thus becomes less important.
Two important hatches here in Montana (where I am
writing this) are the flavilinea and the epeorus. Both have
olive bodies and gray wings, but the epeorus is much
lighter in color and a size smaller (16). Often the hatches
overlap and are on the water when the light is poor.
It is not difficult to prove to yourself at such a time
that size matters, but color does not. I fish both hatches
with a sparkle dun, but use flies with varying color bodies.
Olive, gray, brown, even black will all work equally well.
For the fun of it I have even tried red (red is one of the first
colors to fade in poor light). It didn’t matter. But switch
size and you can be out of business in a hurry. So the
message is that the brighter the light the more you need to
think about the color of your materials.
Techniques
Do you ever fish weighted nymphs? And also
unweighted ones? When they are sitting in your fly box,
how do you tell the difference? On big slugs it may be
obvious, but on small patterns it is not obvious at all.
A simple way to keep them straight is to tie all the
weighted ones of a given pattern with a different color
thread than those without weight. The result is a different
color head on the two types of flies. Since the color of a
head makes little difference to the fish, the problem is
solved. At least that is true if you remember which color is
which!
Tools and Equipment
Do you use a Materelli whip finisher? For my
money it beats any other type by a country mile. It also
beats whip finishing by hand: it is faster and more
accurate. There are a few flies that are easier to finish by
hand, but we need not get into that.
If the Materelli is your tool here is a little trick to
make it more useful. At the bottom end, just below the
lower ball on the handle, is a short tab. File a tiny “V” in
the tab, working from both sides so that the result is a
sharp notch in the end of the handle. Then when you’ve
tied off a fly, just push the V notch against the thread to
cut it off. It will go up tight to the head of the fly and give
you a neat cutoff without having to lay down the whip
finisher and go at it with scissors.

food. This is where I had my best luck.
I am always looking for a quality fishing experience that is
close to home – Goose Lake in the Gifford Pinchot National If you want to camp, there is a primitive campground with
Forest does that and more. Located approximately 60 miles 25 sites, pit toilets and a camp host at the lake. Make sure
from the Portland Metro area, this lake has some decent you have enough water and supplies, as there are no stores
Brown, Cutthroat and Eastern Brook Trout that will readily
take a fly. Please note that you will need a Washington
fishing license, about $8.00 for a two-day non-resident. Just
as you enter Stevenson, on the left side of the road, there is
the Main Street convenience store where you can get your
license, fuel and supplies for the day.How to get there:
q I-84 east to exit 44 (Cascade Locks, Stevenson),
cross over the Columbia River on The Bridge of the
Gods ($1.00 toll each way).
q Take highway 14 east through the town of
Stevenson to the Wind River Recreation Area.
Turn left onto Wind River Road towards the town
of Carson.
q Go approximately six (6) miles
q There is a sign indicating Goose Lake and other
lakes
q Turn right at Panther Creek Road,
q Take an immediate left (Panther Creek Road) – this
is a paved road that will narrow to one lane
q Go approximately 11 miles
q Turn right on Forest Road 60 – it’s a well marked close by. For additional information, call the Mount Adams
dirt road Ranger Station at 509-395-3400 or give me a call at 503-
q Go seven (7) miles; the lake is on the left. 246-0665.

Park in the day use area, a Forest Pass is necessary. There is
a cement boat ramp, which provides access to the lake.
Boats with electric motors are allowed, as is bait and
hardware fishing. This is a perfect size lake for anglers
with float tubes. Fishing from the bank is an option, I
noticed a few kids with stringers full of fish and having a
great time.
In short, this is a good fishery that is close to home and
easily reached with the family car. If you have not fished it,
do so. If you haven’t fished it lately, its time to get
reacquainted, you’ll be glad you did.
Kevin

My brother and I covered the lake at a leisurely pace in

approximately three hours using our float tubes. The best
action was at each end of the lake. The far end has some
weed beds and some bugs hatching; the other end (close to
the boat ramp) was productive for me using a lightly
weighted, gray Carey Special with a very slow, short
retrieve on a floating line. The fish were healthy and would
be perfect on a 3 wt. rod. One of the unique features of Remember to Sign up New Members to
this lake is the large, silver, gray tree trunks that jut from Trout Unlimited. It’s a great bargain for what they
one end of the lake. These naked trunks create quite a get. Especially at the half-off introductory membership at
$17.50 Lots of people aren’t members who would enjoy it.
We still get something for new member signups. New
members can sign up at www.tu.org/intro and entering

membership application, contact Erle to send it to them.

Lessons from Alaska, Part II
Rod Lundberg
Sitting on a jagged outcrop of bedrock jutting from the
tidelands of Ketchikan, Alaska’s Revillagigedo Island, I get
the sense that somewhere along the line I’ve actually done
something right. Salmon roll out in the cove seeking the
scent of their natal stream, a mink dashes into the water
and runs back toward its lair with a crab in its jaws, and
bald eagles soar under the clear blue skies while waves
gently lap at the shore. Steep slopes rise up all around,
covered in evergreen forest. Across the Tongass Narrows,
Gravina Island looms with peaks and ridges a few thousand
feet above the water. A cruise ship glides lazily by,
preparing to dock along Ketchikan’s historic waterfront.
The mink pauses in its tracks and seems to look past me,
so I turn, reminded that I’m actually supposed to be
watching the construction project that’s occurring only
yards away. This stunningly beautiful setting has actually
been my office for about 4 weeks, from early July to early
August.
As the design engineer for this outfall construction
project, I grudgingly accepted this remote assignment in
the “salmon capital of the world” to monitor construction
progress and provide technical support to the contractor. I
didn’t want to do it, but I felt I owed it to the project team.
(Lies, all lies.) A series of providential permitting delays
pushed the schedule further into the season than
originally expected, which allowed a few of the early run
fish to start showing up in the local creek.
So I ‘worked’ for about 10 hours a day, then on most days I
went fishing. I also had the opportunity to put the rental
car on the ferry to an adjacent island, Prince of Wales, for a
few days to camp and fish the more numerous creeks and
rivers there. Generally the water was very small, made even
more so by the near-drought conditions Southeast Alaska
has been experiencing this summer. I fished over king,
sockeye, chum, pink, and coho at various times, with the
pinks being most numerous. I could not for the life of me
get a chum or king to open its mouth at the right time, and
I had only slightly better luck with the sockeye. On the
other hand, I was able to drift flies into the mouths of
various pinks and coho, often with explosive results. Even
the smaller pinks were not overly matched by my 9-weight,
and I just about had one sea lice-infested pink spool me on
my 7-weight.
But I’m not writing to gloat about my good fortune in
landing this gig. I learned a few new lessons and reinforced
some others already logged away. Here they are (drum roll,
please):
1. If you tie flies, bring a tying kit at all costs on a
travel-related fishing trip, even if it’s only a rudimentary
one with basic materials. You never know when that
obscure chum salmon pattern you tied 2 years ago
becomes the magic fly for some of those close-mouthed
fish. (That happened, oh, 3 times over the course of this
trip as I discovered a particularly successful pattern, then
subsequently lost the only copy to a fish’s jaw or the
streambed. Or a tree.)
“To Conserve, Protect, And Restore North America’s Cold Water Fisheries And Their Watersheds”

2. Not only is bigger not always better, sometimes
tiny is best. I caught most of my fish on egg patterns that
were smaller than ¼”. Also a floss fly pattern tied on an
egg hook, consisting of fluorescent floss tied in for a tail,
then wrapped up the shank to the head, tied off with one
or two wraps of grizzly hackle. That’s it. Tiny. Pink and
chartreuse straight up, and in various combinations of the
two. (It’s a winter steelhead pattern that I happened across
on Westfly only two days before I left Portland.)
3. Those egg-sucking leeches you tied over a year
ago that have been repeatedly soaked? Now they’re just
woolly buggers. The bright egg on most of my ESL’s had
faded into oblivion. Not a huge loss, since they seemed to
scare fish more than anything under these conditions.
4. Tons of fish doesn’t necessarily mean tons of
easy catching. At least not for me. Be flexible. I think that
I landed one fish that had attacked a strip-retrieved fly.
One. I had to resort to tight-line nymphing, wet-fly swing
and greased-line presentations.
5. Accept the fact that you probably are not
detecting numerous strikes, as frustrating as that may be.
I watched several pinks approach my fly (which I had on a
taught line), mouth it, and spit it out before I could react.
Had I not seen it happen, I would have been clueless.
6. You can avoid a large number of foul hook-ups
by using the rod to ‘feel’ the bite. Fishing certain pools
that were loaded with fish, it was of course very easy to
snag fish while tight-line nymphing. I found that if I gently
lifted the rod tip when the line stopped, I could feel if the
fly was in the fish’s mouth or not. If the fish had eaten the
fly when I raised the rod, I could feel (and sometimes see)
the head shaking as it tried to spit out the hook which had
caught on the jaw. Then I set the hook. If I lifted the rod tip
and just felt dull tension, the line was probably caught on
a fin, so I allowed some slack and jiggled the rod tip to
allow the fly and leader to shake free. It worked pretty well.
Not perfectly, but pretty well. Also, the snap that I usually
associate with an aggressive take was really just a fish’s tail
swatting the leader. That was a hard lesson to learn in a
number of ways.
7. A 6-weight is not enough rod for pinks that are
within sight of tidewater. I was amazed at how bad-ass
these diminutive members of the salmon family fought.
8. Just because the fuel canister you bought for
your camp stove looks exactly like the last one you
purchased doesn’t mean that it is. I was lucky to only have
to drive about 2 hours out of my way to find a store with
the right kind of canister, and only go straight to bed
without dinner on one of the four nights.
9. For those of you comfortable around firearms, a
pistol-grip short barrel shotgun loaded with slugs offers
tremendous peace of mind when you’re camping in the
middle of nowhere with bears. Enough said. (This was
loaned to me by one of the crew.)
10. Be prepared for some barbaric practices if you go
to Alaska. On a number of occasions I witnessed the legal
snagging that occurs at the mouth of some creeks and

rivers. It’s pretty ugly, but the fish are (generally) kept for
consumption, and the locals here largely depend on the
land for their subsistence.
11. Don’t mention to the construction crew,
comprised primarily of former loggers, that less than a
week prior in Portland you were actually on board the
Greenpeace ship that is currently docked in Ketchikan to
protest the logging of the Tongass National Forest. (This
was not actually a lesson learned, but more of a rare use of
good judgment on my part.)
For the record, Lessons from Alaska, Part I has not actually
been drafted. Watch for it in a later issue.

ATTENTION: Send a Note on
ROADLESS AREA CONSERVATION
RULES
SEND BEFORE SEPTEMBER 14. Make a difference today.
Write to Forest Service officials in strong opposition to the
proposal. Comments must be received by September 14,
2004. Below is a template for the letter.
Content Analysis Team
ATTN: Roadless State Petitions
USDA Forest Service
P.O. Box 221090
Salt Lake City, UT 84122
Dear Forest Service Officials:
I am writing to express my strong opposition to
the proposed rule announced on July 12, 2004 that would
replace the existing Roadless Area Conservartion Rule. I
encourage you to instead retain the original rule and
defend it in court.
The proposed rule offers little in the way of
durable protection for roadless areas. Requiring state
governors to petition the federal government on a case-by-
case basis if they want roadless areas protected will result
in additional bureaucratic hoops for state government with
no guarantee that such requests will be granted because
the Forest Service retains the ultimate authority to decide
whether roadless areas will be protected.
Roadless areas on our national forests contain the
last of the best habitat for fish and wildlife. Trout
Unlimited recently released two reports, available at
www.tu.org, that illustrate the value of roadless areas in
Idaho and Oregon to fishing, hunting, and habitat. Among
the reports’ key findings:
•83 percent of bull trout spawning and rearing habitat in
Oregon is found in areas with roadless lands;
•74 percent of Idaho’s Chinook salmon habitat is roadless;
•Oregon’s remaining westslope cutthroat trout
populations are found in roadless areas of the John Day
River Basin;
•88 percent of the Idaho land in units yielding more than
90 percent branch bull elk hunting success is roadless;
•61 percent of Idaho’s historic steelhead habitat has been
lost but 74 percent of the remaining habitat is in roadless
areas;
•72 percent of the Idaho land in units yielding more than
40 percent four-plus-point mule deer hunting success is
roadless; and
•Oregon’s Lahontan cutthroat populations have been
reduced from eight watersheds to just two, and both are
within roadless areas.
Overall, roadless areas provide large blocks of habitat for a
variety of terrestrial and aquatic wildlife and plants,
including hundreds of threatened, endangered, or
sensitive species. Many roadless areas function as
biological strongholds and refuges for a number of species
and they play a key role in maintaining native plant and
animal communities and biological diversity.
 7
In summary, I urge you to abandon the proposed rule and
instead retain the original rule and defend it in court.
Thank you for your consideration of these comments.
(feel free to edit to your own thoughts)

Trout Unlimited has released a report, "Where the Wild

Lands are: Oregon", on Oregon Roadless areas, with maps
that show where native trout and salmon are found and
the wilderness/roadless areas they are found on. The
report shows extensive GIS maps, describes all the native
fish and where they are found in relationship to roadless
areas and descriptions of major roadless areas.

It also talks practically about the need for roadless area as

protection for native fish and wildlife, with factual
information. It is a very well done document and speaks
eloquently for protecting roadless areas for native fish and
wildlife. If you would like a copy, contact Tom Wolf or
