Wynoochee trees above white bridge are gone
« on: February 03, 2013, 04:06:41 PM »
After two boats almost went down yesterday.  Someone went up and cut the trees down...  It took them a while but they are gone.

I wish they would prohibit jet sleds on the nooch.
It's a TIKKA thing..., you may not understand.

Just my personal wish Button.  The nooch gets allot of pressure from local and out of area guides.  I drift it and it would be nice that is all.  I do not have any animosity towards the sleds.  Another personal opinion of mine is that the nootch is borderline wide enough for the sleds, when sharing the river I am saying.

I run a Woolridge sled as well so not against sleds.  But i do not run it on the nooch fyi.

I thought sleds were only allowed up to the divergent dam? 

I think they should also make some of the Satsup drift boat only.

I don't think sleds make much of a difference when there are 50+ drift boats from white bridge to Black Creek! Just sayin...

Amen. There is no point of banning sleds when there is on average 100 boats a day on the nooch.

They could limit them below the water intake or black creek.

If we wanna talk about sleds, let's talk about the A.holes that run their sleds up the satsop all the way to decker creek. I have seen this at least 50 times since December 1st.  :bash:
I had a guy pull his sled up to the log jam in schafer state park a few days ago.  :bash:

Which trees on the Nooch were causing boats to sink? This is probably the 5th and 6th boat I have heard if this year. I have floated it twice this year from Carter Creek to Crossover, and I didn't see anything that was bad unless you just weren't paying attention...Was it the low overhanging one just above white bridge?

It was hanging above the water.  Pretty much spanned the entire river at the current flow.

i've about given up on the wynoochee and satsop in the winter.  too many people, and i can only stand to see so many guides with 425, 253, and 206 area codes painted on their boats out here before my blood pressure starts to rise.

i thought fishing was starting to get crappy 10 years ago, i never thought i'd wish that it was that good again.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

I wish they would ban people from Spokane on the Nootch.

They were just above the white bridge launch. And your right! there was no logical reason I could see for this to sink boats.

There is no law on were sleds can go on either river...

The nooch is such a cluster that banning sleds wouldn't even help.
