Freeman crk ramp was clear on Saturday, in case anyone was wondering.
I fished Friday and Saturday. It slowed down for me vs two weeks ago, but I think I was just off the game. Other people did just fine. With the hot weather, getting out there early seemed to be a...
I had similar success all last week with similar gear (brad's dodgers, pink micro hoochies, diy corn) and depth directly across the channel from Freeman Crk. Trolled 1-1.2 mph.
They're still gobbling.
Last week and the weeks prior, I had been getting limits in Canyon Crk. Fish were 50 - 60' deep the last two weeks, and there were a lot of them on the finder. It seemed good all the way to the dam...
I would camp at Dent Acres. You'll have to boat a few minutes to the south end of the res for fishing.
Aside from Corps ground, there aren't really any non-private hunting opportunities near...
Haha. There's probably something to the flow killing the bite. At least on average. I noticed it last year. That was in April though. I do know that I regret not getting out there when it's a...
I didn't measure any this time, but they haven't grown since when I did measure a few in Feb. At that time, they ranged from 8" to 9". They're skinny, as expected.
It was colder and cloudier...
I caught 25 yesterday in canyon crk.
I ended up trying it out on 2/5. It was a nice day; sweatshirt weather. Caught 8 in 3 hours out of Canyon Crk. I lost probably another 8. The kid was doing most of the reeling. All 8-9 inches...
Thanks for the winter fishing advice btw. I'll have to hit up the dam once my outboard parts come in the mail.

I put my new to me boat in at Freeman Creek today just to see if it floats (it does). I also gave a half hearted attempt to catch fish for a couple hrs. I flatlined 70-120' out with arrows and pink...
Yep, it's Corps and private surrounding Dent. It's only a 5 mile drive to State land though. Most of the through roads are public ROW. We found a decent spot on a landing on IDL to park the...
That's what I'm trying to work around. I'm pretty sure I can find a spot to park my trailer on State or Potlatch ground in the Dent Acres area. Near Canyon Crk it's going to be more difficult to...
Does anyone have any input on if a guy could do ok in the Elk Crk/Cole Crk/Dent Acres area? I'm trying to nail down an area where I could be both close to decent fishing and dispersed camping on...
I'll make sure my hands don't infect themselves.
Notably, IDFG has not closed fishing or hunting seasons. I would think they'd be the final word; certainly on waters that are truly public (which I wouldn't consider Dworshak to be). In WA, fishing...
Freeman Creek launch was open yesterday.
Fished between Freeman and Canyon Creeks on Saturday. Caught 5 before 11, then only got one nibble the rest of the day. In the morning i caught them at 20ft down with pink wedding rings and...
I was bummed I had to lay them back there like that. The cooler I had brought was just too big, and I had to leave it at the truck. It was cold enough that day that laying them under my jacket was...
The big one is a trout.
For the price I probably could have bought a decent aluminum boat. No room for one though.
Split Milt's videos have been really useful for me. I still need to watch many of them though. The two most difficult things about the kayak are not being able to motor to someplace better, and...
Went out Sunday. First time fishing for Kokanee. I fished from a kayak out of Freeman creek and caught 8 kokanee and 1 rainbow. I spent a lot of the day working out newbie kinks. I hope to do...
