Went out on Good Friday to get some fishing in and we had an average day. We ended up with 3 fish all very good size. First fish on at Noon and other two about 130pm. We were using senkos, jigs, grubs, tubes, and thought it would be a much better day. I think the changing weather was some of it. We fished several areas and the areas that produced were the backwaters and sloughs, the water temp in those areas was up to 57-59 degrees while the main body of water was in the upper 40's and low 50's. Two of the three fish were full of eggs and all were released immediately. Weights of the fish were 3lbs 10 oz, 3lbs 14oz (pics) and 3lbs even, so over 10lbs in 3 fish. I think another week of good temps will get the fish really going!!

Good Luck,
Spokanebassman

Hey, Spokanebassman, I'm in the process of moving all things Snake related over to the new Snake River section. Where exactly on the river were you guys fishing?

The reason I need to know is that I HAVE to move this report... to one of these areas:

http://www.washingtonlakes.com/SnakeIndex.aspx

If I can't tell where it goes... well... I'm not sure what I'll have to do with it. I will be removing the Snake river from the River index this week.

The picture of the person on the right would be a fish caught probably in the Burbank Slough area. The background looks familiar.
