Do any of you out there know anything about the Sanpoil River, Omak Creek, or any other streams in the Colville area? Also, what about Long Lake or Ell Lake or Omak Lake? Any info would be greatly appriciated. Thanks

I have fished Ell lake a couple of times. It s not to deep about 15 to 20 feet, I used a sink tip and damsels this time of year and did well. The fish can be quite large 20" plus.

I have fished the sanpoil a few times, I usually fish right around in the bay by the Keller Fairy there are some BIG KOKANEE in there if you can find them they run in the 2-3 pound range with the ocasional smaller one about 12-14", I also fish on Twin Lakes there are some bigger trout in there if you fish it right. There are 2 resorts on the water with some small acomadations, Log cabin Resort (south twin) and Rainbow Beach Resort (north twin), there is good water acces and adaquit boat launches for large boats.

A friend of mine used to hits a few lakes ine the northestern section of the state near Chewela. One was Chopaka (sp?), so check the lake index for a little more info. Also, how did yoou plan to fish. Chopaka is fly fishing only. Andy
