I'm searching for any information as to the legal tribal boundaries along Lake Roosevelt. My question is, am I allowed to fish from a boat along the reservation side of the river without a tribal license. Two of my buddies and I were fishing in the Spokane Arm last weekend discussing this topic and decided to stay along the south shore since none of us had a definitive answer. Any information or web links would be greatly appreciated.
As for the fishing.... only 2 fish landed. 1 nice 3+ lb. bow (mine) and 1 dink throw back w.eye (dave's) for an all day outing on the water. We were constantly marking fish that were stacked up in the 20-40 ft. depth. All seemed to be around 10 ft. off the bottom. Threw just about everything we had at them but we just couldn't find their trigger. Still.... A fantastic day on the water. Good company, good weather (in the afternoon), and incredible scenery including getting to watch coyotes hunting and pursuing deer.
