7/31/2009 11:22:00 PMI will definately be making the trip again, just got myself back into some steady work so im gonna look for a cheap boat since the one I took was borrowed and maybe a 10 horse motor. Maybe find a spot by the pens to launch or maybe the 10 horse will motor me up there within a cpl hours never know. Anywho...thanks again and will definately be looking you up if i get itchy for big fish, already thinking about lake chelan now lol

8/11/2009 1:51:00 PMI'm heading to RW next week and have been trying to figure out the best way to get to the pens without running the boat for 2+ hours round trip. I will be coming from the Chelan area.......what is the best way to get up to the boat launch you're talking about? I know someone has mentioned a primitive boat launch on here before..but I don't know the area well enough at all to be able to track that down.
Should I drive out to Grand Coulee, then up to Nespelem? Or is there a quicker way? I think I can see the pens on Google Maps, but nothing that looks like a boat launch in between them, except for a small dirt road off of Columbia River Road.
Any more details would be greatly appreciated by myself and my 7 year-old son....who just wants to get out there and fish, not drive with dad!
