Its pretty frustrating ttyingto find a decent spot to catch some quality btyingclose to spokane from shore,or float tube. I suppose sooner or later I will figure it out. I was spoiled I grew up and recently moved from one of the top ten bass lakes in WI. and i miss it llol

7/20/2009 3:40:00 PMIt is a pretty far drive from Spokane about 40 miles but I will be back there Wed afternoon. You could probably park on the HWY and walk down the hill near the bridge. The bridge is about 3/4 of a mile upstream from where the church campg is. Also, if you continue further towards Reardan to Little Falls Dam you can catch walleye. Being from Wisconsin you probably appreciate walleye fishing. The stretch of river above Little Falls is great for SM and below it is great for walleye and an ocassional trout. Go get em and good luck!

There is also a little public park across the bridge right below Long Lake dam. There are a lot of rocks and trees in the water. It is really prime smallmouth water. Have you ever fished that area?
