Have you ever noticed how hard it is to change what you do? “That’s the way we have ALWAYS done it.” is a common refrain. When it comes to trying something new, we will try minor variations on a theme. For instance, we agree to try just a little hot pepper on the sweet and sour pork but revolt at the idea of a little pepper on the sweet and sour pork-u-pine! So, what does this all have to do with the Emmrod Stream Master Fly Rod? Well, it is that same attitude here that keeps people from buying this wonderful pole. I am making a sign for my display saying “A real man leads and does not care what his friends say.”
.
You see, when people see this great compact fly rod, they love the idea, they think of all the ways it can help them fish smarter and better, then they walk away because it is pork-u-pine and not pork. So, let’s look at what this great compact fly fishing rod can do for you.
.
Price: I know this is the worst place to start, but it is instructional. I did some quick checking on a Google Search. Found a great 6 and a half foot bamboo pole on sale from 3500 bucks for a measley 2500 smackeroos. You could even have it personalized for $49.92. The next company started in the cheap seats at $199 dollars. It crawled quickly up to about $350 and did not look back. They topped out at about 800 dollars. I did find one for about $60. But it was very lonely out in the outfield. The Emmrod Stream Master Fly Rod is only $99.95! For those compact fly fishing need times you have a great pole that is only about three feet only and packs down into about 30 inches. All that for the cost of 18 Big Mac meals!
.
So, who really needs a short, indestructable fly fishing rod? Let me jump right in here and say I do not believe the Emmrod Stream Master is the end all to Fly Fishing. I expect you will still go out and buy the long expensive poles that mark typical fly fishing practices. On the other hand, there are many situations where those big expensive poles are just so wrong!
.
When you are involved in Extreme Fishing Experiences, why drag a 300 or 800 dollar pole that can easily break back into the hinterlands where it is going to get beat up by the act of transportation? When you are doing a lot of climbing, horseback riding, or just traversing heavy brush, you do not need to worry about a delicate 12 foot pole, even if it is broken up in a carrying case. This is a perfect place for your tough 30″, 9 oz package which will take a real beating and just keep on working.
.
Often in small stream fishing an assembled 6′, let alone a 10 or 12″ pole is just too big. Too many trees, too short a distance to actually cast, and you spend all your time frustrated. Here is where the Emmrod Fly Rod is perfect. Just slip it under the branches and get it into the water.
.
A common concern for Fly Fishing Rod users is when they have to work on their pole and have to put the reel in the water to reach the pole. That is just not a problem with the Emmrod Fly Rod! No, you can manage it all conveniently even if you are in a float tube, canoe or kayak.
.
So, anytime you are in a situation where transport or space is limited, you absolutely need the Emmrod Stream Master Fly Rod.

 The Emmrod Short Top Water Rod
Obviously, the size of the fish you are targeting plays a role here. Frankly, I am not that concerned with the top end of the scale. I am more interested in our efforts to catch minnows. How LIGHT of a line can we get away with using?
The Nature of the Emmrod Fishing gear rods is they are a bit stiffer. One of the very few abilities we do not have is to go to those ultra-light lines. As a general rule, use ten pound test line as a minimum weight line. You will find the act of casting or vigorous pull backs snapping those two to four pound lines.
As with all rules, there are exceptions. One of my customers, Phillip, has terrified the fish in the ocean near where he lives with his fishing prowess and collection of Emmrod Compact Fishing poles. He is a fair sort of person who DOES want to give the fish a fighting chance so he likes to stretch the effort by using lighter lines.
He expressed his excitement to me recently after trying out his Emmrod Top Water Rod. He could actually use his lighter lines. I provided him the shorter version; however, I imagine the longer version would accomplish the same thing.
 Long and short Emmrod Top Water Rods So, I have a request from all you Emmrod Fishermen out there. Please send me feedback on how you stretch your system to use lighter lines.
I am going to make a category of blogs called “Fishing Tips” where I can share the wisdom of the various fishermen and women out there who are enjoying Emmrod. Every tool has its tricks. Let’s Collaborate!

Philip asked me if it was possible to cast a 1/8th oz crappie lure using 2 lb test line with the Emmrod System. I have not had a chance to go out and try that yet because the weather here has been horrible. Horrible from the point of view of going out in it to fish. Actually, from the point of view of my garden and fields and getting drinking water next year and going skiing this winter (Not me, the effect of gravity on my rather heavy body is more than I can handle.), the rain and wind and coldness has been very good.
Here is what I have been able to find out by asking around.
–If you “shoot” your bait/lure out, forget anything under 10lb test line.
–If you cast, you should be fine, just don’t snap it out. If you do, you will pop the lines, maybe even a 4 pound test line. So, in the end, you should be able to cast with the emmrod using the lighter lures and lines, just practice and go gently in the lapping waves. I will try this when I can get out on the lake.

This will be short because I can not find my notes. I will try to find them and get a longer report on here. Trying to squeeze too much into too little!
Bottom line, it continues to be a strange year. The good news is the bass are still biting and have moved in closer to the shore. There were a couple four pound bass photos on the wall when I went in just before going to the Colfax (Palouse Empire) Fair last week. Those were recent catches. Black was the lure color they were hitting on.
The crappie were a bit slow but still a few nice ones coming out. The Perch were pretty good and some had been caught off of their docks there.
Jerry’s landing is going into its last couple weeks of the season so hurry on up and take advantage of their great service and especially of their knowledge of the lake. Free at the public dock w/ no info or $3. to launch from Jerry’s Landing with an instant fishing report. You tell me which is the better deal!
Also, September 19th, the local Kayak Club will be having their annual whing ding deploying from Jerry’s Landing.
I need to encourage them to each get a Kayak King Emmrod Compact Fishing Pole http://www.mycompactfishing.com/cgi/commerce.cgi?search=action&category=KAYA to enhance their Kayaking and Kayak Fishing experience. Actually, I think the Emmrod Packrod http://www.mycompactfishing.com/packrod-compact-fishing-poles is probably even more convenient. In either case, the 7 coil rod is probably the best bet as it is gentle enough to give you a lot of fun on the small fish but tough enought to handle the bigger bass and perch you might run into. Also, keep in mind, those big Crappie are really scrappy and a tougher tip (7 vice  is probably still a good idea. A second Rod that is great is the Top Water Rod which is great for the top water lures and give you more action. http://www.mycompactfishing.com/product/top-water-special-rod/1-1128.php
Enjoy the weekend and look for a new report next week. Thanks! Dave Atherton

 Enjoy the Emmrod Kayak King Fishing Pole for all your Eloika Lake Fishing Hi Spokane County area fishermen, ladies, boys and girls. Here is your August 10th Eloika Lake fishing update. I touch bases with Lauri and Jerry of Jerry’s landing every couple weeks or so to find out how the fish are biting. They are the experts who are on scene providing much of the bait, the lures, and some of the non-motorized boats to the fisher folk who stay at their resort and campground. They are a convenient place to fill up on those necessities you forgot to bring with you through their small store so stop in and visit. Their contact information is below.
If it is perch and crappie you crave, disappointment may be in your future as both are slow right now. If you want to go wit to wit, hook to fin with bass, load up and head for Eloika Lake. People using Jerry’s Landing caught a five pound bass last week and others caught two four pound bass this week.
There are two ways to get your boat in the water. The public launch is located at the end of Bridges road on the east side of the lake–North on Highway two to Miller’s One Stop, left at the flashing light and you drive right to the public launch area. Do not forget the parking pass available at any fishing license seller.
The second is Jerry’s landing where there is a small fee ($3) to park and launch your boat but you also have the store where you can stock up on the last minute needs you forgot or replenish what you use up. You can also get updates on where the action is and how to fish. Huge value for small dollars. Tell them “Dave sent me.”
Jerry’s Landing: 41114 N Lake Shore Road, Elk Washington. PHONE: (509) 292 2337. N on HWY 2 past Miller’s onestop to Oregon Road. (If you get to the divided highway, you have gone too far.) After turning left, go to Regal/Eloika Lake Front Road (Same intersection, regal to the right, E. L. front road to the left.) Turn left and follow that around to Jerry’s landing.
Happy fishing.

The good folks at Jerry’s Landing have forwarded an Eloika Lake Fishing update to me.
Give them a call or visit:
Jerry’s Landing
41114 North Lake Shore Road
Elk, WA 99009-8743
(509) 292-2337
The fishing has been a little slow the last week. Our water temp. is 81 degrees and the lake turned over, so we think that maybe by next week the fishing should improve. They are using top water baits right now out in the center of the lake. The crappie are found in the open holes in the center of the lake, mainly in the evenings. The best time for the bass have been at dawn and evening.
In an earlier conversation, Julie told me they had some very nice large bass and the crappie were a good size as well. Keep your eye on Eloika Lake as it is one of the most fun lakes for me to fish. I like it that you never know, just like Forest Gump’s box of chocolates, what is going to be on the end of the line. Perch, Bass, Crappie, Trout? Who knows. That is what makes it fun.

What a fine evening! A few days ago, I took off a couple hours from running my three businesses, real estate, daylilies and Emmrod Fishing Poles (www.WhyBuyEmmrod.com). I said, it is time for a brief sanity break! I am heading over to Jerry’s Landing to rent a canoe for an hour or two. Off I went.
I met Laurie who is half of Jerry’s Landing Resort along with Jerry. She was pleasant and helpful and got me set up right away with a canoe, life preserver and floating seat. She gave me some helpful hints on where to go for the few minutes left in the day.
Off I went! Boy, canoe paddling is really different than a regular row boat at which I am not the good either. I will say, it sure is easier to paddle a canoe than it is to row a boat. I paddled out about a half a mile and gradually drifted with the current and fished along the shore. Long story short, did not get anything but sure had a good time.
One of the reasons I went was to get some more actual fishing experience with my Emmrod Packer. This is a fine compact fishing system which is only about 22 inches long. It uses either a bait caster or closed face spinning reel. I use the later. I was very pleased to be able to cast it 30 to 40 feet using only the weight of my small spinner. While that was the wrong bait for the area, playing with it was a lot of fun. Fishing in the confines of the canoe where I did not dare stand up–actually found myself thinking about laying down in the bottom when the wakes rolled in–I found it incredibly convenient to have all my tackle, bait and fishing pole including a spare Emmrod Packer all set up in two five gallon buckets. It would have fit in one, but I had been working on my daylilies all day and just kept throwing worms in a five gallon bucket of dirt so I just drug the whole thing along instead of putting the worms in a small cup.
Some lessons learned:
Try to stay perpendicular to the shore when you hear an ocean liner flying down the center of the lake at 200 knots per hour. When that wash arrives four minutes later, you just do not want to be parallel to the wash. Thank goodness, I do not get seasick.
Do not scream at your kids even when they won’t stop crying. Your cursing carries over the water even more than the kids screaming. You come off on the bad end of the impression scale.
Treble hooks are not very useful in the weeds. There is nothing they won’t catch except maybe fish. Eloika Lake is a weedy lake.
Listen to what Jerry and Laurie tell you about what to fish with. I should have bought a couple of the white jigs Laurie recommended to me as what the Crappie were biting on now. Even the worms were not attractive to the fish that evening.
Even though I did not catch anything, I had a great time. I saw several loons and one seemed to like my presence as it stayed about a hundred feet away from me most of the time I was out. A big fat beaver swam by with a stare as if to say “And who do you think you are?” A cat was hunting down by the river but did not seem to catch anything either.
I finally pulled the plug and coasted into Jerry’s Landing as the sun set. A great time relaxing and watching nature. Wish I had caught a fish, but, in the end, it is not about the catching but about the trying.
When the fishing bug bites, keep Jerry’s Landing Resort in mind. They are a great young couple providing a fine service to those of us escaping reality for a few hours. According to them, right now the Crappie are biting and are being caught up to 12 inches long. A 5.5 pound Bass, Large Mouth Bass I believe, was landed. Just a thought on the Bass, keep the little guys and release the big ones. They take forever to get that large. Catch and release is a great plan on big bass. Finally the perch seem to be biting as well.
Here are some of the services offerred at Jerry’s Landing Resort:
Full RV hookups, Cabins, a store, Fire pits and Picnic Tables, Boat and Canoe Rentals, FULL BATHROOM FACILITIES (Very important for us old guys.). Prices are realistic, service is polite and friendly, the location is super convenient and Eloika Lake is a great lake to fish. It is one of the top four Bass Lakes in the NW from what I understand.
So, to visit Jerry’s Landing Resort, North on Hwy 2 (Newport Highway) past Riverside High School and Miller’s One Stop to Oregon Road. West (left from Spokane) to Regal Road. Left to Jerry’s Landing.
Their phone number is 509 292 2337, their email is jerryslanding@earthlink.net and their address is N 41114 Lake Shore Rd, El WA 99009.

I am blessed to live in an area of Spokane County which is surrounded by lakes. I have finally started fishing them! I just listed a couple properties in Loon Lake. One of them has lake access through Morgan Park, a subdivision on the north side of the lake. You can check out a tour of that listing at www.MyCountryHomes.com. The point is, I am going to take advantage of that listing to do some shore fishing here in a month when the season opens!
In the meantime, here is some internet research on the lake.
Here is some information from the Washington State Department of Ecology:
LOON LAKE — STEVENS COUNTY: 1997
Size (acres) 1100
Maximum Depth (feet) 100
Mean Depth (feet) 46
Lake Volume (acre-feet) 50600
Drainage Area (square miles) 14.10
Altitude (feet) 2381
Shoreline Length (miles) 7.9
There is a lot of other generic information through which most folks will not enjoy plowing. For the severely masochistic, here is the link: http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/eap/lakes/wq/docs/lkloost1.html
Shore Acres Resort has a great description of the fishing opportunities. Here it is in toto. Their link is at the end:
Fishing at Shore Acres Resort
Fishing season begins in April and ends in October. Loon Lake is considered one of the best fishery’s in the entire area.
Loon Lake is one of Eastern Washington’s largest lakes covering over 1100 acres. The water is crystal clear, coming from a natural spring, and reaches a depth of 140 feet. Elevation at Loon Lake is 2400 feet.
Fish species include Kokanee, Mackinaw, Small & Largemouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout & Eastern Brook Trout. In addition there are Perch, Crappie, Brown Bullhead Catfish and Pumpkinseed Sunfish.
Check the Fishing in Washington Regulation Pamphlet for rules on freshwater fishing and eastside lakes. Youth under 15 years of age do not need a license to fish. License requirements and fees are available from the Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife. Recreational fishing licenses can be purchased at All Seasons Grocery and Hardware in the town of Loon Lake.
Pontoon boat and aluminum fishing boats are available to rent. Reservations are recommended. Ask about hourly and weekly rates.
Boat launch and moorage are available if you’ll be bringing your own boat. Ask about weekly, monthly and seasonal boat slip rates. We also have boat fuel available.
We carry a variety of fishing tackle and live bait.
When you arrive, ask for a map of Loon Lake’s favorite fishing spots.
Here is their link: http://www.shoreacresresort.com/fishing.html
(Incidentally, I believe this resort and a huge piece of land is available for sale. If you are interested, please contact me as I am a licensed Realtor. (CompactFishing@gmail.com))
This lake has another resort at Granite Point. There is also a public dock near the NW corner of the lake. As with all other state access points, you need to buy a public parks parking sticker to park there.
The silvers are a great fish to catch here. Any of our rods using the Top Water Tip would be great for these soft biting fish.
Enjoy this great fishing experience! Only about 5 weeks to go. (Usually opens 31 April but check with the State.)

The Emmrod Packer is the fishing pole that got Emmrod up and running. A short ten years ago, Duane Markley adapted and upgraded a 1930’s product idea with current technology. He wanted to have a fishing pole that maintained the casting ability and benefits of a six to ten foot pole while picking up the benefits of a much shorter pole. He did it too! Ten years later, the Emmrod Packer is still selling across the country and bringing joy to fishermen and fisher women and fisher boys and fisher girls across the world!
 The Fishing Pole that got Emmrod Started What you see here, is the handle and the rod together. The rod, which is the metal end with the spring coil, fits into the handle with a quick set 1/4 turn, spring load that holds the rod firmly into place, yet lets you switch rods in just seconds.
 Emmrod 8 coil casting Rod. Perfect for pan sized fishing. Ultralight Fishing at its best! There are four basic Rods. 8, 7, 6 and 4 coil. These graduate from pan sized fish, to up to two pound fish, ten pound fish and twenty-five pound fish. If you are fishing for larger fish, you can use the double tip rods shown next.
 2 tip Emmrod Rod. Use for those lunkers up to 50 pounds! Check out the blog about Mel. He uses this tip on the Emmrod Packer along with a huge bait casting reel with a harness to catch large fish off Florida Docks. He recently brought in a 7 1/2 foot shark on they type of rig.
This is a good time to talk about reels. The Emmrod Packer uses two types of reels. The closed Face Spinning reel and the bait caster reel. Any standard reel of these varieties fit.
What sort of fish might one catch? The world is your oyster! Sharks and tarpon seem to fall to Mel’s Emmrod Packer. Bass, sunfish, trout and steelhead all end up in the frying pan.
What makes the Emmrod so great? a man asked me at a recent show. First of all, the compact nature of the rod when you prepare it for travel. It is only 12 inches long. Second, you can cast it as well as any standard fishing pole. You can also “shoot” it, hence its nickname “Dock Shooter.” It is unbreakable. It is flexible in that you use the rod designed for the weight of the fish you are hoping to catch, pan sized to shark sized! Simply put, it meets almost all capabilities of a regular pole and keeps on giving with the characteristics mentioned above. So, if you are looking for a cane pole, look elsewhere. If you are looking for a fishing pole you can cast, carry, troll with and keep in your glove compartment, you are looking at the right place.
Enjoy meandering through www.WhyBuyEmmrod.com where you can buy the Emmrod Packer, the Emmrod Kayak King, The Emmrod Mountaineer and many other fine fishing poles. Check out the WhyBuyEmmrod video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ukf-GcVeKY
