Everyone,The Channel 6 news in Boise has carried a story about the Lake Lowell planning process for the last two evenings and I have been busy enough to miss the story until the very end. What little I can get from it sounds as if all recreation on the lake will be banned. I did not say that was definite but the story had to do with the economic impact of what the plan appears to be leaning toward. One part that I did get that scares me dramatically was the statement that so far they have received only 40 comments.
I have sent several requests that our membership inundate them with comments and apparently the request is falling on deaf ears. I know that a large majority who are receiving this message don't live near Lake Lowell, may never have fished it and may never have the opportunity to do so. I still need your help. If DFWS manages to shut this body of water to recreation they will use it as a catalyst to do so nation wide. This lake is under consideration for hosting the 2012 Northwest Division Championship and IDFG is currently putting a good deal of effort into improving the fishery.
Please make your comments now. There is nothing limiting the number of times you can comment and you are not required to identify yourself. We have over 300 members and I would expect that we should have at least that many comments on file by this time.

Here is an article in the Idaho Press-Tribune about the Comprehensive Conservation Plan for Lake Lowell: Work begins on Deer Flat Wildlife Refuge plan.

Not much of a meeting Monday night; I will get some minutes up on the website tomorrow. All SRB club members need to remember that the Hot Summer Night tournament is the main source of operating income for our club. Everyone should make an effort to fish the tournament or at least come up and help with running it. We will need potluck food, a couple more tables, another BBQ, help with running the potluck, and on Sunday morning we will need: a check-in boat, weigh-in help and at least three release boats. - June 19, 2010

The June 5 & 6 club tournament scheduled on Hells Canyon Reservoir was cancelled due to extremely high water, dangerous current and huge logs floating in the water. Premier Bass cancelled their June 5 tournament for Brownlee Reservoir at Woodhead ramp and Larry Raganit let us use his permit; thanks Larry! After we had moved the tournament to Brownlee we heard that thet were spilling water over the spillway at Brownlee Dam and the sheriff closed the boat ramps in Oxbow and Hells Canyon. Here is a link to the Brownlee Tournament ResultsBelow is a distant picture of Pine Creek running into Hells Canyon Reservoir; you can see some logs floating in the dirty water.
If you took photos at the tournament, please e-mail them to me for the website; thanks. The fishing at Brownlee was great, but the catching of keeper bass was tough; at least we got to fish! The potluck was great too; thanks to everyone for bring soooo much good food.

The public comment period for the Lake Lowell Improvement Plan has begun and is open until June 4. The Refuge's goal is to: "restore the lake to conditions supporting its beneficial uses: aesthetics, primary contact recreation, and warm water aquatic life." This may or may not affect boating and bass tournaments, so everyone needs to let the DEQ and USFWS know that we want to see boating and fishing continue on Lake Lowell.
How to Comment: Residents are encourage to send written comments by June 4 to Lauri Monnot, DEQ Boise Regional Office, 1445 N. Orchard, Boise, ID 83706; by FAX to 373-0550; or by e-mail to lauri.monnot@deq.idaho.gov.
For more information on the subject go to the DEQ Website - May 4, 2010
