Snake River is a moderate sized river with flows that are controlled by the upriver Hells Canyon dam complex as well as the Salmon and Imnaha Rivers that drain into the main stem Snake. This scenic river has numerous rapids and is a play ground for the gentle giants, the White Sturgeon. The Snake also has some excellent Smallmouth Bass fishing both in numbers and some truly trophy fish, as well as great winter steelhead fishing! The Snake River and it's unique history and the magnificent scenery and wildlife makes this river a truly wondrous place for the outdoors person.
Lake Bryan below Lower Granite Dam provides excellent cat fishing and at this time some limited catch and keep Sturgeon fishing. Sturgeon within the size slot are available but somewhat limited in numbers. The catfish are an entirely different story with good numbers of these fine eating fish living in this impoundment. This area has limited road access with much of the area only accessible by boat. This impoundment has little fishing pressure.
Grande Ronde River is another small river that flows through Oregon and into Washington. There is great bass, trout and steelhead fishing in this stream. The Ronde is well suited to the fly fisher and for those who prefer bait or spinners. Summer Smallmouth bass and the winter run Steelhead provide year around fishing. Good road access along some of this river provides numerous places to fish. There are also areas that are roadless and can provide a nice one or two day float trip.
Clearwater River provides world class fishing for Steelhead, Trout and White Fish. This small river is suitable for most types of fishing. Fly fishing, jig and bobber, spinner or bait fishing are all good producers. This river is very shallow during the late summer months with increased flows in the fall and winter after the seasonal monsoons start.
Idaho Salmon also migrate up the Clearwater every spring and depending on the year there is an exciting and popular fishery that takes place in April and May.
