Fishing Forum

Never fished this area and am going to meet son from Boise since its about half way from Idaho Falls. Any info on where to tube/toon and what to use would be appreciated. Any campsite infoo would also help.

Your best bet is to pull into Hot springs landing, you can camp there (no trees and just gravel) or you can head a few more miles east to Stanton crossing, nice big trees good camp sites and its sittin' right on the river, purty nice spot , if it were me thats where i would camp..
Hot springs landing and the narrows are great spots to fish out of tubes n toons,, great fishing and good shelter from the wind, thats where a 14 pounder was caught last week.
Good luck, and let's hear how you did..

Thanks for answering my quiry. The tree campsite sounds great and with your advise we'll have more time to get the son on fish than cruising around trying to find spots.

how is mormon fishing these days? i havent fished it since high school. the pic below shows a couple nice fish from my last trip there. we used to tie up in the hydrilla and pull toads like this out more often than not.

Nice fish, kokesmoker. The last time I was over there.....years ago.....the F & G were in the creek at the outlet shocking fish. They had been checking people prior to that that had been fishing the same stretch, but none had caught anything. They were wondering if the trout were migrating over the dam. Well, some amazing hogs floated up in that stretch. It was a sight to see! I never hear anything about Mormon these days. Anxious to see if anyone responds to your query. Again, congrats on some beauts. Mike

Just checked the West Magic Resort, and a new report is on it. Said the fishing is "red hot" with easy limits coming from the bank, using mallows and worm. All rainbows. Didn't mention trolling. Has a picture of a 6 pounder taken recently. So, Deshka, how did you do last Saturday? Mike

We did pretty good, caught two 20" plus Rainbows and one brown that was a little bigger than the Rainbows, lost one after a pretty good fight never did get to see it but I'm sure it was quite a bit bigger than the ones we realeased.
We only fished about 3 hours then had to leave.
I did catch a real nice Brown a couple days ago I'm sure it was an easy 25 inches and good-n-fat, I'm not sure fishing is red hot right now atleast not for the big uns but i do see folks hookin' up on stockers.
I will post up some pics here soon as i can,,,, i re-upped on my anti virus and my computer went hay wire and i can't get it to work now so i am on one of my old computers now but it doesnt have my pics on it, hope i get it fixed i would hate to lose all my pictures AGAIN!!!!!
I'm heading to Elko tomorrow for some work i hope i get a chance to hit South fork and hook up on some of those huge Trout and Wipers,, if i do i will post up a report.
