[font "Times New Roman"][size 3][cool]Hey, Mr. Gun, here are a few links that can get you started. Some of them are brief, but others have some good cross-links that will keep you off the streets for a while. There one message board site with lots of posts on the different bass ponds in the area.[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]You are correctly informed on the size of the smallies in that area. A three pounder is a nice fish anywhere, but hardly gets a second glance among the local bassers. It usually takes something over 4# to rank for big fish in the tournaments up there.[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]I did find one brief mention of Milner on one of the sites I dug up. No need for the link, but here's the quote: [red]"Milner Reservoir, between Twin Falls and Burley, is best fished by boat or float tube because the shoreline is rough. Perch are present in the reservoir, as well as good-sized smallmouth bass."[/red][black] Sounds like my kinda place. Meet ya there.[/black][/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]By the way, I have a couple of personal emails from someone's trip to the Snake River below Swan Falls late last summer...walking the bank. Let me know by PM or email if you'd like to read it and I'll get it over to you.[/size][/font]
