We fish the first week of june over by central ferry on the snake river. We use a boat and if it is;nt blowing we do real good.

I miss catfishing myself.  Anyone know of any places on the wet side?  How about around Spokane?

Sprague Lake used to be good for channel cats.  Not sure if they re-planted them.

Rasbo we stay at willow bar about 3 miles above the cental ferry bridge. It has a boat ramp and camping sites and places for trailers but no electricty or water. Most of the boats are about 18 feet but some 15 foot smoker crafts to. We catch both blue and chanell cats and smallmouth. Most of the fish are about 6 pounds but have caught some bigger.

I'm sure a boat is nice but you don't have to have one at Lyons ferry or Central ferry on the Snake, you can catch plenty right off shore, chicken livers and nightcrawlers.

swafford pond down by mossy rock has some nice catfish...i think they are bullheads though.

there is a little pond/lake in whitecenter that we use to catch catfish in, again they are bullheads. biggest being about 2lbs. there is also one little frog pond that i have caught them up to 5lbs in.

ive fished the snake a few times for cats. averaging 5lbs and the biggest being around 20lbs (caught by my buddy).
