| Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake is formed by the Grand Coulee Dam, Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake contains over 60,000 water-surface acres and 500 miles of shoreline. Available species in the lake include walleye, rainbow trout, kokanee, yellow perch, lake whitefish, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, black crappie, and white sturgeon.These numerous species of fish are available in the Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake for plenty of fishing opportunities.The climate of Washington varies within each region. The Cascades split the state and alter the weather patterns. The mountains receive large amounts of wet, heavy snow from October through May. These peaks remain snow covered throughout the year. The terrain east of the mountains receives approximately 12 inches of rainfall per year, generally much less than west of the mountains. Since the area east of the mountains is landlocked, temperatures in this region are lower during the winter months. Frequent winds coming down from the mountains also contribute to the low temperatures of eastern Washington. |
