I got a note a while back from Nichole Jordon with the Upper Columbia Salmon Recovery Board. She was putting together an Invasive Species educational event at Pybus Market, and wanted to know if I would like to participate. Sure thing, I told her. The event took place last Saturday. I have attended the “all hands on deck” northern pike suppression efforts on Lake Roosevelt and have gone out on both the Spokane and Colville tribal boats to see how they are removing these predators from the lake. There were folks from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife at the event, and they brought along one of the “cleaning stations” that remove mussels from contaminated boats. They also brought “Fin” a dog that can sniff out zebra mussels on boats. Nichole and Bill Towey were on hand to talk to people about the northern pike efforts. I took my boat and got to talk to a lot of people, more about the fishing opportunities in the area. I was very pleased to see how many people came by to learn more about these threats to our fish and waterways. There is good information available, and this helped spread the word.
