Bass, trout,...

With over 10 different lakes that harbor bass, southeast Idaho offers anglers an opportunity to score on largemouth's within a short driving distance from Pocatello and northern Utah.

For extreme warm water fishing Twin Lakes near Preston is fishing very well. Largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill and perch are all on the menu and anglers can expect to fill coolers on most days in the field.

My kids and I went to Twin Lakes and had a fun time. We fished with worms and the kids caught a mess of blue gil. My oldest caught a large mouth bass that weighed about a pound.
The kids went swimming on a very nice day.

This was a great outting for all!!!

For the Idaho Press-Tribune
After the late spring we had, summer finally arrived, and along with it came the bugs.

POCATELLO — “I am haunted by waters.” These final words of Norman Maclean’s celebrated work, “A River Runs Through It,” always move me, regardless of the number of times I read the novella. Perhaps it was because, for 20-plus years, I lived in Missoula, Montana, plying the same waters Maclean wrote about fishing more than a half-century before. Maybe it was the sentences that preceded the finale — “Now nearly all those I loved and did not understand in my youth are dead” — which appealed to my Irish maudlin sentimentality. But mostly, I think it identified something within, put words...
