Main Stem Snake River 9-02-10

Streamer fishing, especially during evenings is coming on up & down the river.  Boating is the best way to enjoy the currently great bank fishing with terrestrial patterns.  Look for snowflake duns hatching on the river and responding trout from around Blackfoot on downstream.

We lost the old dog pound access on the Snake River off West River Road just upstream of Idaho Falls.  The area is airport property and is now posted and access roads bermed. Too bad: it was a good take-out location for those floating from the power dam upstream. Some very large browns & bows reside in this part of the river and they attract anglers.  Let’s hope that access here can be identified.
