Outing & Adventure in June - Who's in?

[Chef]

I just made reservations for two days at Chirstmas Tree lake on June 9th & 10th (Wednesday & Thursday) and will most likely go up on Sunday or Monday to start the festivities of stream walking & still water floating.

If you're interested call in asap to secure your permit as only 20 are allowed on the water at a time.

Maybe you do a day or just hang on to stream walking instead of the still water. I'm not sure where I'll base camp but it may be Hawley (close to beer runs) and most likely won't be there much anyways but it's a good middle point to go in any direction for the day.

It's $30.00 a day per angler and the fish are Browns, Rainbow & Apache trout.

June 9 & 10 (wed/thur) 928-369-7669 for reservations


Reservations required! Like a good restaurant, this lake can be unforgettable. The world record Apache trout was taken here. The lake is limited to 20 anglers per day. Most people describe this lake as being in the middle of nowhere. Travel the 20 or so minutes down a well-worn, and sometimes very rutted, dirt road and you’ll probably agree. Once you arrive, this horseshoe-shaped, 41-acre paradise beckons the fly fisher to explore. Anglers playfully refer to Christmas Tree Lake as an Apache trout hatchery because of the many fish caught in the two- to five-pound range. Types of Fish: Apache, brown, and rainbow trout.

I have made a commitment to make a meet in Oregon with a bunch of friends who make rods.

Your trip will be awesome but it is mid-week, time off, arghh.

If I can make it, I will.

this sounds awesome. i am going to try to make it. are there other lakes nearby or streams that we can fish (that won't be in runoff) if we make it a long weekend?
please keep me in the loop as to logistics, camping spots, etc.
thx

Brooks, that sounds fantastic. I hope you make the weekend, that's just that much more of a reason for me to make the drive. Wow, that's like half the team right there boy, that is if Chef makes the weekend.

Weekend.

We can do Brookville or I'll hunt up a hidden stream for us.

Chef, I've been told that where you, hook and I visited the oxbows above, that's alright to hike into. I'm going to verify that somehow but if that is the case, I'll be making a beeline there for a couple of trips this summer.

sweet. i have to run it by my wife tonight but with any luck i will reserve the slots for the lake for the weds and thurs (tomorrow) and then stay the weekend to fish, hang out, etc. stoked.

SWEET! There are tons of lakes, streams, feeder trickles all around. Christmas tree should be all dries to boot!
