Johnson & Deep Creek were basically emptied last year so you probably won't catch any bass in those two places. I don't think St. Johns has anything but planter trout in it after it was drained a couple years ago. I will be checking out in St. Johns, Johnson & Deep Creek sometime in the next month to see if I can catch something besides planter trout. Foster, Glendale and Twin Lakes all had enough water that the winter kill shouldn't have been as bad. Everywhere was very low last fall/winter so I don't expect the LMB fishing to be as good as it has been other years. Lamont and Johnson both had some dam work done on them a few years ago which hurt the fishing but I've caught LMB around the 13" range out of Lamont this spring. Chesterfield, Treasureton, Hawkins and Wiregrass are some of the other reservoir in SE Idaho that I know don't have very many fish (if any at all) besides what the F&G plant this spring. American Falls Reservoir and Blackfoot Reservoir were also hurt bad by the drought.
