Nice trip Mike...
Family always comes first!

Confused though - first carp fishing (a few months prior), and now Bass?
Sigh...where did we go wrong?

I wasn't carp fishing and what's the matter with bass? A fine sporting fish!

I was hoping to see Bull Trout in your report when you mentioned Minam. Bass are ok. Stripped bass are more fun.

Russ,

Big Bull trout are further downstream on the main Minam River. I have no idea if they are in the N. Minam drainage. Also at least 3 lakes that feed into the N. Minam have had brookies planted in them so the downstream population of bull trout could be at risk.
