Hey everyone,<br> Well folks, I just had the best fishing trip of the year. It wasn't in Utah but it was close enough to drive to in a day. I went to the Snake River below Boise and down stream of Swan Falls and walked the shore line past the end of the road and fished for small mouth bass. This apparently is not a well know activity since most people fish for channel cats and sturgeon. I actually got tired of catching bass! They were good size too. I caught a lot in the 13-15 in category! The biggest was a 18 in monster which is big for any river! Folks fishing by the road access weren't having near the success but I have been there before and knew where and what to use. I also caught 2 nice channel cats while bass fishing, (18 and 21 in). All in all, it was a great trip and I'd recommend it to anyone who was willing to expend some shoe leather and tolerate the heat.<br><br><br>Leaky
