When you come off the freeway onto Hwy 20-26 (road to Parma) less than a mile turn left onto Pond Ln (Caldwell Gun Club) and the Caldwell ponds are there. I've fished those years ago and caught bass and bluegill. I think they are also stocked with trout.

If you go to Google Earth or Flash Earth, you can see quite a few ponds along Hwy 20-26 from the freeway to Parma. I don't know if they are accessible to the public. Maybe someone who lives in that area on here can give you an update. I've haven't fished the area since I bought my bass boat in '95.

Yeah the confluence of the boise and snake is right there by Parma. It's been a few years since I fished there but I always did pretty good. You should be able to catch bass and catfish right there.
