I fished Long Lake up there by Republic a couple years back and caught more cutthroat on dry flies than I could count, though I must say they were all pretty small. It's in Greg Thomas' guide to WA Fly Fishing. There are a few other nice likes very near to it that offer better size rainbows, but some of those get hit pretty hard by the bait/hardware crew.

Lang Sent: Friday, June 07, 2002 4:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Chopaka, Okanagan, Republic I'm troubled by the outlook for Chopaka this summer, specifically the July 4th weekend. As Darin has asked, what alternatives do you good folks know about? A group of 4-6 of us head out fishing/camping every year, and Chopaka was our first choice. How about the Republic area ? Nice scenery and hiking are always pluses (we may have some non-fishers with us). Anybody? Thanks for your input!
