Jack and Mark: Snake River - 10/1-3

Went down on Mon. Oct. 1st. Set up camper at Tucannon RV Park. 

Fished toward the afternoon of that day, pulling out near 6p.m. Caught 6 more perch, one 16" walleye and one 15" catfish. My partner, Mark (not Dianne this trip) caught one more perch. We headed in around 5:45 and cleaned our catch in the failing light after we loaded the boat.

Tues the wind came in. I'd estimate the speeds hit 30 mph at times. We stayed in camp all day.

Wed. I caught another catfish (12") and another small perch in the morning. That was it. I caught another catfish and one more perch in the afternoon.

I had originally planned to stay until Thurs, but cut the trip short due to the poor fishing. 

Side note: they are catching Salmon along the north shore downstream from the Lyon's Ferry campground. Some folks were leaving the dock to do just that when we pulled out Wed. afternoon, and one boat reported getting their limit of salmon before switching to walleye for the remainder of the day.
