Post by: rasbo on March 12, 2016, 03:40:35 AM
Have any of you guy's ever caught a blue cat or a flathead on the Snake River? I've fished Farewell Bend before and caught some nice fat blue's and an oriental guy was there with cages set on the water to keep his fish alive and he was catching BIG flathead cat's with a cool piebald color of a banana yellow and brown speckling. Who else has seen this?we have caught a few blues,no flatheads though

Will be arriving around noon on Friday.
Will put the boat in the water at a slip and then go set up camp.
After camp is set up will then head out in the boat and run the flats balls to the wall wide open making a new trail on the GPS, for some reason I lost the last track I "saved" on my GPS.

If you do get stuck, don't just jump out of the boat. Trim up and paddle as best you can or push off the bottom. Last resort get in the water and push the boat, but that mud is deep and sticky and walking in it isn't the most fun or easy thing to do.

Surprisingly, didnt. But we fished till it got hot, then didn't the days under the shade tree napping and back out fishing after dinner to midnight.

Had a great time too! We got over 35 fish. Biggest was 8+. But, Ben (92XJ) gets credit for the Onion rings! Plus, most of the catfish we were eating were one's he caught that first evening and Saturday morning.
Wish I was still there now!

I'll trade you the onion ring recipe for your hot sauce recipe. :drool:
I should apologize for stealing your jar of hot sauce you put out for us for the burritos. I put the jar in the cooler to keep it cool and once I got home realized I still had it. I thought about bringing it back to you, but decided to keep it and put it on every meal till it was empty. Ridiculous stuff.

I'm glad I could supply and keep all you jack wagons fed. One day I'll teach you guys how to catch fish.
I want to say my biggest was 7.75, I think. It was big enough for the day to win the prize. Thanks again Mrs. Denali!

I was wonder if i can get some good info here for catfishing the snake river especually around the poluse river. When is the best time of year to go. And where is a good spot to bank fish on the poluse. And also what is a good bait to use. And is it best to fish at night? Hopeing to get some good feed back.it was covered in ice this weekend

Give them a call, you may be surprised with what they have open. Really nice people out there. :tup:
Post by: rasbo on June 01, 2017, 04:32:25 AM
Thinking of going to the Palouse River for a few days in about a month and don't think the KOA will have any spots to stay. Any body have any ideas on where to stay near by camping or at a motel. Never been over there and want to try for some catfish. Also if you use the KOA to launch is there any time restrictions for launching or fees. Looks like the state launch is a time from i believe 7-7 day use only prohibiting night fishing. Thanks for any help. It should be pretty cool trip if i can plan it right.anytime you can launch,there is a drop box for 5 bucks unless that has changed

Cool thanks guys. The website said the koa was all booked but i gave them a call and they ended up with 1 tent site left. Im all set for camping. Now just have to pack everything and start preping for the trip. Hope my schedule dont change for work. If that stays the same it will be a good trip. This will be the first trip taking my boat on a river so it will be interesting. I will be using a 16 foot semi v john boat with a 25 horse mercury prop. Good boat that should be able to run shallow enough throuhout most the areas.if you go up t
he Palouse,stay right of the island up there,its real skinny and rocks..
Post by: duckmen1 on June 01, 2017, 02:41:05 PM
Do you feel going further up in the boat is typically better for cats, or staying out on the flats? I hear fishing really shallow is best. Under 4 feet. Gonna have plenty of worms and gonna stop and gather some cut bait the day before to ensure i have some when i get there. But whats everyones favorite baits? I hear of a lot of baits to use for cats but local favorites are always prefered.
Also is there a lot of carp in the area to bring the bow or should that just be left at home?
Thanks for the tips

I'll be heading that way this weekend. Is it still too early for cats right now? How's the fishing on the Palouse currently? Are there any opportunities for bank fishing?
its going to be really high and muddy

One of the days a large swarm of black ants made it only half way across the river and soon the water was alive all around the boat with rising Smallmouth Bass. If we had only brought the Fly Rods along.... what a time we could have had. The Smallmouth we did catch tasted pretty muddy compared to our Catfish, the cold water on the bottom really improves their flesh and they have a nice layer of fat on them.

We have done well in the past for both Blue and Channel Cats on the Snake above and below Ice Harbor Dam. The biggest fish seemed to be on the north side along the RXR Tracks among the rocks over 20 feet down, we were using night-crawlers. The majority of the fish we caught during the daylight hours when the Oceangoing Tugs pushing Barges would come through the Locks. The stagnant water would start moving and so would the Cats and the bite would be on.

These were actually caught on the Iowa river, in Iowa of course. Biggest one in the two pictures on the log was 63#’s. I haven’t catfished since moving here. My brother in picture. They sure do put up a fight!

I ran to up to the mud flat in my boat, I am going to need someone to show me the channel before I take my new boat across that. The water at little goose was considerably cleaner looking than the water below by lyons ferry (duh, Tucannon and Palouse Rivers) but hopefully she's getting cleaned out I want to catch some food!
Speed is the key on that channel. Don't come off of plane until you hit the falls!!
I kid - I've had good luck far left against the rock cliff, or just left of the main Palouse channel.
It's pretty high right now so you should be good.

I turned around at 1.2' according to my main nav set. I can get my boat up to about 47 MPH with peeps and gear and beer and a full tank of fuel, I think I could rip through there but I didn't feel like that was the adult thing to doI ran to up to the mud flat in my boat, I am going to need someone to show me the channel before I take my new boat across that.

All of it is going to read between .5' and 1.5'.
The key is to hammer down and just go. I line up aiming at the left bank of the mouth of the river, then full throttle. You'll be fine, just do not throttle down. When you hear your engine bog just a little, don't panic, keep it throttled up and just power through it.

Right now, with snow melt run off, you might see 3' randomly somewhere. Either way, avoid the stump, and power up, I've never had an issue running multiple lines, getting over the flat and into or out of the river. Unless I stopped on purpose, and then it sucked for the next 30 minutes walking the boat or having to trim way up and move at 2 mph until deeper water.

I think that was my first year fishing Cat. That was on our bait pole that we were fishing for peamouth and squaw fish to cut up. Catching that carp and dragging it across the mud on an ultra-lite was a kick in the pants. Buddies-Moms-Boyfriend :o had a boat that he and buddies brother would fish out of, while buddy and I were left to the bank. Buddy got a boat from a coworker that year (for free) and we were off the bank after that. I think we pulled more fish off the bank though! :dunno:
If you fish that area at all it is very recognizable and not much of a secret... why I wasn't too worried about posting a picture. ;)

Went up the Palouse River yesterday, surface watertemp was 63 degrees according to my stuff. water was clean looking too, wind was blowing hard enough that my anchors kept pulling free
How was the fishing? I'm headed out aunday
Post by: JJB11B on May 14, 2019, 12:23:19 PM
it was blowing so hard I left, no fish only got about 20-30 minutes of actually fishing in, I was by myself and fighting the wind trying to anchor up, or use my trollling motor.

I'm working in Lewiston this week and the river seems to be moving fast and has alot of debris from what I can see. That's probably not helping the temperature come up for catfishing... :dunno:

There was a few fingerling smallmouths and I netted a 2 inch catfish that looks like a fatbellied Bullhead pkus another catfish baby that's black... What are they? I'll post a pic tomorrow.
LDennis24, Did they look like these? Piranha? :tup:
