Looks like above Asotin, Three Mile area. Always thought the canyon started above the Grande Rhonde?

It was bellow Hellar Bar. We didnt fish above heller bar at all. We went out of Lewiston. Total fopr the boat for 2 days we only caught 8 steelhead. 4 were Brats, 4 were Nates. The 2nd and 3rd picture is of a Nate, The guides do things different over there, that is for sure!

Those fish become bulltproof when they hit idaho waters, making it totally unnecessary to leave them in the water! Boy, what a difference a stateline can make!! Very nice pictures, thanks a bunch!!

Thats the guides arm, not minde, if i had my choice, the fish never would have left the water except for a quick glory shot! Like I said...They do things different there. However all the other fish were never lifted out of the water.

I dont know how it is in Idaho but here in eastern wa. 99%of the time the only difference between a wild and a hatchery fish is when the hatchery runs out of money in the clipping budget the rest of the smolts are wild. This is usually the case for salmon also. The dorsal fin tells the true story.

On the same note, guys with Washington licences can fish with barbed hooks on the Snake, while Idaho and Oregon licence holders are barbless only. Maybe someday there will be some kind of communication set up where states can actually talk to each other about importaint issues.. hey wait.. I the the PHONE is ringing

Unless the rules have changed from last year, you CANNOT use a barbed hook to fish for steelhead at the Heller Bar, Snake River, with a Washington License! We fished it last year at Heller Bar with a guide and provided our on gear. My Grandson forgot to crimp the barb on a new hook after he had prior lost his hook. We were checked by the Washington Game Dept. and he got a warning ticket. Perhaps the Warden didn't know what he was doing?
