I know you trout fanatics won't like this, but whether you like it or not the upper Spokane river is becoming a great smallmouth fishery.
Check out the 17" smallie from this Sunday, on the fishing report page.

RE:Spokane river smallies
LOL, they have been there for a long time, especially below the Dam in Idaho. Most don't catch them because they don't take small flies very well.deepbuzzer wrote:I know you trout fanatics won't like this, but whether you like it or not the upper Spokane river is becoming a great smallmouth fishery.

With the Catch and Release rules in place, they should just about eat out the Red Bands in a couple of years.
Too much water, so many fish, too little time.
