I did, not easy around there. Its a perfect spot a think, was hopen to be closer to bottom. But with rules 200 is as close as I could get. It's a ridge line with thick brush by barrel, making them feel comfortable comeing in. With a creek on both sides . Thanks for all your advice and help

Game time now!  When are you going back?  Can't wait to see what you have coming in. Do you have a camera on this bait site?

I keep thinking I will do a bait one of these years but when I think about money and time invested besides the work packing it all in and weigh those factors versus the success I've had spot and stalk I always decide against it. Good luck to you guys though and maybe one of these years.

The end of trip kinda sucked. Trany just wouldn't go into a gear , and of course I was at the top lol. Had to have it towed to town, and find a place since we were suppose to be headn home. Once dropped off at hotel,@ 11:30 pm, mybdad called wit a idea. Got tools out and dropped pan, dang tranny filter fell off inside. Must been from rds, been in there for a year. So we drove home, just in time to see fam wake up. Just glade I'm not still there with a bad Trany. The people in ID were all very nice and helpful, after I had been home most of day. Tow guy even called and made sure I did. Real nice people
