Bank fishing for salmon around Lewiston?

[TeacherMan]

We are headed down to Lewiston this weekend for a race my daughters in “Just for the Hill of it”. 7 miles and 1700 vertical feet. Goal is under 50 min. Anyways that is her goal, my goal is to try and catch a king 😂 I’ve been seeing guys doing really good fishing from boats right under the bridge in town, limits by 6am.

Any recommendations on a place you could bank fish for them? Was thinking of tossing a bucktail tipped with a full shrimp under a slip bobber. Other thoughts?

Always see guys off the levee parkway trail...they seem to do good.

WDFW closed the snake to springers on the 13th.

Once again, the sportsman got a week of fishing for a single fish a day.

Looks like Mann lake for channel cats…

My uncle lives in Lewiston. Use to go fish with him a ton. If you go to Mann lake bring a crappie rod. We use to load up on them years ago, don’t know if it’s still like that.

Sounds like a blast, we’ll definitely toss in crappie rods and jigs.
