Fishing in Idaho June 2017

[DOGFISH]

2017-06-06 11.08.36.jpgWent and purchased a 1 day fishing permit while camping in the Sandpoint area, caught Perch, Lake Trout, Pumpkinseed,Catfish in a short period in the early morning from shore. Then a guy comes by with his Bass boat and asks how's the fishing, told him good but smaller fish. He then asks if I would like to join him for some Bass fishing, turns out he is a tournament fishermen and I spent the rest of the day learning the local ways and spots for Large and Smallmouth. Awesome day and I can't say enough about this guy, let me use his gear, bait and the hole enchilada. Everything was top notch, I have Charted boats and have not had this type of experience. Thought I would share some pics. One Bass I caught was 4.75 lbs and the bow of the boat picture was at 72 mph Sorry about the last picture it is one that was texted to me sideways. Dogfish

Sounds like a great day. We were new to a lake in North Dakota, and low and behold, Johnny Candle is a guest speaker at the campground we were at, and has a free seminar on how and where to catch fish (he wouldn't tell us his favorite holes though, go figure). Never seems to be a lack of folks willing to help out down south. Glad you had a great time.

Sounds like a great day, I have been in that area many times and wondering what the fishing was like and what was in there.

Awesome, good people are fishing people

72 mph...holy crap!

Probably smooth running as a babies bottom though...my tinner would have torn apart
