That is a great picture of the sun through the trees over the water! Love it when there's wildlife out while I'm fishing… Need to check out the Pend Oreille River I suppose!

yep it's a sandbar been there done that!

1st time fishing the PO for me and I wanted to give a shout out to "ilv2fish" for some great info on the river and techniques.

You are quite welcome Mike! Good to see you at least caught one decent smally! Gotta love the fight in them! Hope no one got hurt hitting that low point, I think we've all done that at some point! Glad to see you didn't go all the way down towards Newport, there is a gravel bar down there with huge rocks where I almost ruined my lower unit and prop a few years back! We did go Sunday and boated 8, we found a few smallys under the Usk bridge along with a decent largie! Glad you enjoyed the wildlife there too, the river never dissappoints on wildlife!
