I have not fished Milner, but I have fished lots of other Snake res's as well as the Snake River itself. Your Rapala might be too high in the water column to catch the keepers. I have always been succesful with soft plastics like grubs and creature baits. Try rigging a 3" (or so) grub on a jig head (with hook exposed) and reel in kinda slow so your bait stays low to the bottom.
Also if you know how to rig a "drop shot", that can be good for smallies to, just make sure to set the hook as soon as you feel the slightest tug.
Hope this helps, let me know,
