    A simple but tricky question. What was the first hydropower dam constructed in Washington state in the Columbia River drainage upstream of the Okanogan River and when did it begin operation.

    Hangman Creek Chinook

    There’s still Little Falls dam, Long Lake dam and Nine Mile dam for those fish to pass over or through in addition to chief joe and grand coulee. The project only shows they can go downstream.

    It's too early, but...

    Actually those fish will swim past the snake river dams. That’s because they take a left turn before they get to the snake river dams.

    Hook Eye

    Way, way back when, fisher persons tied flies on to their leader with a turle knot. The shape of the eye, turned up or down enabled them to seat the knot to the fly without it slipping over the eye.

    The new fish don’t really know what food is yet so they are sampling what’s in front of them. To them a brown pellet is food.
