Just for Ron and Mudsucker.

This one was earlier in the year and he took one of my smallmouth tubes. He weighed 9 pounds. On this trip we were astounded at the number of cats we saw in the shallow grass beds. I don't know how you would fish them in the fast shallow water, but one of these days I'll try.
You really do need a jet boat to fish about anywhere between Homedale and Swan Falls. There are some holes you can fish OK, but you can't run to the next pool due to gravel bars and grass beds. My boat is not one of those river runner jets:

My boat is a G3 18' with a 90/65 jet and a tunnel hull. It is made for fishing.
Finally, I don't think there are any bad places to fish the Snake. At least I haven't found them. There are places that are better than others, and there are places that have more traffic than others. I tend to stay away from the latter. Fudge the Boykin and previously Bert the Boykin fish with me every trip. They are great dogs.
