We (want cooler weather) if we want them to last longer.” Only one or two rows of tulips will be left come Mother’s Day on May 11, Rose said. Cut tulips will be available for purchase throughout April and into May, then tulip bulbs will be processed for sale in the fall. After the tulips stop growing, the fields fill with as- tilbes, phlox and dahlias. “We look at the tulips as the official kick off to the season,” owner Jack DeGoede said. Rose said the cut tulips and hanging baskets are the most popular flowers the farm sells. “Between the tulips and hanging baskets, that is what people come up for,” Rose said. Mossyrock Mayor Tom Meade said his town sees an in- flux of visitors this time of year, mainly due to the peak bloom season at the farm. “We do see some extra people in town,” Meade said. “So the latter part of April into May Pete Caster / [email protected] there is a little increase in traffic Tulips stand in a ield at DeGoede Bulb Farm and Gardens in Mossyrock on Friday afternoon. in town, if the sun is shining.

Thursday’s 2B Baseball Defense Key For Tigers in Sweep of Mules By The Chronicle NAPAVINE — Com- bined pitching and defensive efforts made up for Napavine’s offensive struggles as the Tigers swept Wahkiakum, 3-2 and 2-1, here on Thursday. In Game 1, the Mules scored 2 runs in the fifth inning to tie the game 2-2. Cole Doughty, who also pitched all innings for Napavine, rose to the oc- casion and knocked in the final run in the bottom of the fifth. Along with the clutch RBI, Doughty struck out 12 while only allowing three hits and three walks in Game 1. “The first game was all Cole,” Napavine coach Bryan Bullock said. “Their pitcher (Gunnar Blix) kept us off balance offensively, but we were able to pull it out with our defense and Cole.” Game 2 also came down to the bottom of the fifth, where Napavine scored a run to sneak by with a 2-1 win off of just two hits. Jensen Lindsay and Wyatt Stanley combined for nine strikeouts, two walks and three hits for the Tigers. “It’s nice to win a close double header like this, but we’re going to need to support our pitching staff with more runs and offense in order to get it done in the long run,” Bullock said. Napavine (9-5 overall, 5-5 league) will travel to Oakville on Monday for a 4:30 p.m. matchup.

Quinault Nation Appeals to County Citizens: Sustainability or Oil Trains, the Choice is YOURS

The Quinault Indian Nation works hard to protect and restore natural habitat, to the beneit of all.

Some might say we oppose new jobs in Grays Harbor County because we oppose the massive increase in oil trains being proposed for our region. They are wrong.

Quinault is the largest employer in the county and many of the people we employ are non-tribal. They are permanent employees, with good salaries, good working conditions and good beneits. These sustainable jobs, as well as thousands of others in the service industry, tourism, natural resource-based industries and even agriculture are threatened by the proposed increases in oil train and marine vessel trafic. Promises made by Big Oil that our region will see increased employment and economic beneit along with hundreds of new oil trains are deceptive.

DON’T BE FOOLED – Oil trains and other increased oil shipping will do far more harm than good. Harm to the economy, the air, the water, the land and your way of life. The future of our next generations is at stake. More than 2.7 billion gallons of crude oil a year will be carried by an additional 27 trains a week… Many of those trains will be over a mile long. Big Oil says this won’t be a problem. NONSENSE!

THE TRAINS ARE NOT SAFE – Big Oil tells us the trains are safe and the ships that carry the oil through Grays Harbor are safe. WE KNOW BETTER! It is only a matter of time. Derailments, spills, crashes and explosions have all occurred since Crude by Rail began increasing. The death and destruction extends to people, not just the ish, wildlife and the environment. The damage that occurs will be with us for decades.

THE JOBS ARGUMENT IS FULL OF LIES – Nothing could be more important to a community in dire need of new employment but who will really get these jobs? Most oil-related jobs are temporary. Most will go to outside contractors during construction and then they’ll disappear. The rest will be few and based on a dirty and unsafe industry. Quinault wants to work with the Port, the City of Hoquiam, Grays Harbor County and Washington State to identify jobs that are sustainable, protect our critically important environment and are true to our Paciic Northwest culture.

IT IS TIME TO SPEAK OUT! – Come join us in expressing opposition to the oil trains!

“Federal regulations have not been revised to address the 440 percent increase in rail transport of crude oil and other lammables we have experienced since 2005. DOT-111 rail tank cars used to carry crude oil are not safe to carry hazardous liquids. NTSB is overwhelmed by the number of oil train accidents.” -Deborah Hersman, outgoing Chair, National Transportation Safety Board

Quinault Nation joined others in testifying on the oil issue at the public hearing held at Hoquiam High School on April 24. Come join us in standing up against Big Oil, 5 p.m., Tuesday, April 29 at Centralia High School, 813 Eshom Road. In addition, written comments can be sent to Westway and Imperium Renewables Expansion Projects, c/o ICF International, 710 Second Avenue, suite 550, Seattle, WA, 98104, or comment 24 hours a day online at https://public.commentworks.com/cwx/westwayimperiumcommentform until May 27. Please speak up in support of the future of the Paciic Northwest! This is critically important to all of us, our health, heritage and our sustainable economy. For more information, please email [email protected]. Together, we can protect the land and the water for our children, and rebuild a sustainable economy.

Mike Sturza / Courtesy Photos Fly A isherman casts in the Cowlitz River during a Lost Creek Fly Shop guided trip.

By Sara Potter For The Chronicle With so much technology readily available these days, the activities that used to take us outdoors and connect us to our surroundings, to nature, seem to be something of the past — like fly fishing. It takes you back in time. Before cars, fast food restaurants and technology. When not only fly fishing, but fishing, brought dinner to the table. This, says Mike Sturza, is what makes fly fishing unique, and worth lasting the test of time. “I do get more of an older generation, people who grew up fishing, because being outdoors was the only option as a kid, so they were more likely to be raised with a fishing pole in their hands,” said Sturza, owner of Lost Creek Fly Shop and Guide Services in Onalaska. “It slows everything down; being out on a boat from sunrise to sunset, there is something really special in the ability to do that.” Sturza provides fly fishing guidance all year. Currently spring steelhead trips are available for booking. “Trips usually last 8 to 10 hours, and there is room for two anglers on the boat along with the guide,” said Sturza. “It makes it more comfortable with more room on the boat.” Lost Creek’s guided tours are one of the few services around that offer solely fly fishing tours. “Fly fishing is more than just fishing — it is an art form,” Sturza said. “That is what I try to teach, the art of it, that is my business and what I do. If they don’t catch a fish on their trip, they will at least walk away with more knowledge than what they came in with. That makes it possible for every trip to be a success.” Brett Bates, 35, Longview, says that sportsmanship is something that Sturza teaches not only the fisherman that he is guiding, but anybody that is lucky enough to fish with him. “He (Sturza) is just a stand-up guy and fly fishing the Cowlitz River is his life,” said Mike Sturza shows of his catch, a large Tiger Muskie, during a Lost Creek Fly Shop Bates. “That guy spends, at least, 300 days, maybe more, out of the year on that river guided trip. and knows every rock, every bank, and every pool of fish that are along that river.” Lost Creek offers an experience similar to going back in time, when everything moved a little slower — like the flow of the river when it is low. “There is something powerful about being out on the water when the sun rises and getting that first bite. The air is crisp and the water is clear, there is nothing like it,” said Sturza. “It is one of the biggest differences between fly fishing and gear fishing. Fly fishing just allows you to slow everything down, and you really experience the water and the whole length of the river — not just moving back and forth in only a couple areas of pools. You really learn how to appreciate your surroundings.” When embarking on a guide, the majority of equipment can be provided, if needed. Trips are guided on river sleds or drift boats, stopping at every pool. Instructions on casting, fly presentation and retrieval are given. Sturza says his traditional clientele is older, but he would love to have a younger group become more involved with fly fishing — even if it’s not with him. “Occasionally, I will get a father and son, and really look forward to it when the kids are present; but, I have had times when the kids play on their cell phones the entire time and are really checked out,” Sturza said. “I would love to see more kids put down those cell phones and gadgets, and find the wonder in nature and their surroundings.” Not only is Sturza encouraging a younger crowd to climb onto his boats, but he volunteers his time to help teach kids fishing fundamentals on dry land, as well. A Tiger Muskie swims in Mayield Lake. Troy Logan, 45, Rochester, said, “Mike came to my church and taught a group of fourth to eighth graders how to cast and tie off their own flies; the kids really loved it. I have known Mike for more than 10 years, and have learned so much from him. I would recommend anybody to fish with him, no matter what their experience is, I am sure they would learn something new.” Summer steelhead is just about to begin; the next season is tiger muskie from the middle of August until September, then sea run cutthroat through the end of Octo- ber and then silver chum salmon until winter, and then steelhead from December • Lost Creek Fly Shop is located at until April, according to Sturza. 2069 Highway 508, Onalaska. “You can fish year-round, you just have to find the fish you want, or just the right time of year you want to take your trip,” said Sturza. Fly fishing, Bates said, can become something of an addiction, and Sturza is good at getting you hooked from your first cast. “Mike is just a phenomenal teacher, and is passionate about what he does,” said • For more information on guide services or Bates. “It is one thing to have knowledge about equipment, and an- merchandise, go to lostcreekflies.com. other to be a solid fisherman; but it is another to be able to transcend that personally and be able to teach that to others — that is what Sturza does.” • A FLy FiSHinginCLudeS: guide ServiCe trip Sara Potter is a freelance journalist living in Centralia with her husband and two daughters.
