Absolutely, come on down, I did my daughter's Senior all nighter last year and didn't make it, I'm coming down this year!

[Dustin07]

where about are you guys fishing exactly? I"ve never fished for cats before but have eaten them and they are good.

[buckhorn2]

At Lyons Ferry it;s on the snake river. You can fish the snake but carp start spawning up the paulose river and lots of people fish there it;s about a mile or two from the campground.

[Dustin07]

cool. i've heard the bass fishin was good in that area too.

[Woodchuck]

walleyes man, walleyes 

[Dustin07]

i've never fished for the eyes either! man i need to get out. I hear they taste better than a lot of the westside fish.

[Woodchuck]

oh man, they are tasty, there is a nice hole for em very close to lyons ferry, catch a fair amount of bass out of there to

[rasbo]

I would like to catch a smallie on my noodle rod...Will small spinners nail them

[Dustin07]

yeah  my buddy only fishes bass with rooster tails and blue fox. it's weird.

[Woodchuck]

Rasbo, whatever you choose to do with your noodle is on you, i just may not want to hear about it

Speaking of Noodling, ie. (hand fishing) I used to do that in Missouri . I haven't looked closely at the regs for Wa, but would suspect it is not legal.
Are you guys boat or shore fishing, and what is the best bet for bait?

[Woodchuck]

for cats, i use prawns and night crawlwers. for walleyes, a crawlwer harness on a bottom bouncer mostly. for bass, a crawfish crankbait, for *censored*s-cheap beer

Are you from Missouri or where you stationed there?  Whereabouts did you live?
