One of the most popular fisheries in Eastern Washington is for triploid rainbow trout in Rufus Woods Reservoir. There are several public access points with picnic tables and fireboxes just above Chief Joseph Dam and at Brandts Landing. These get a lot of use by anglers, but the fishing effort by boaters and shore anglers is even greater at the upper end of the reservoir. The boat launch at Seatons Grove, which is just six miles downstream from Coulee Dam, is often crowded with trucks and trailers. Most of these boats are headed for the net pens. This is where the triploids are raised and the feed that filters out of the nets attracts good concentrations of these trout. Boaters will anchor near the pens and usually cast bait to catch fish. Many boaters are willing to pay the $80 Access fee and the $10 launch permit to launch at the middle pens. Shore space is limited here, but the fishing can be quite good. Shore anglers are required to pay the Access fee, which can be done by the day for $20. No Tribal license is required here. Most fish with bait on the bottom.
