I have a problem specifying the rivers myself and have become 
also at times reading posts. The most recent one I read was on Steelheading and someone said the best place to fish was in the canyon. The canyon to me is from Ellis to about 10 miles before Salmon. What the poster was meaning tho I think was some where below Shoup. In this case even the river name itself would not have been enough information to distinguish the correct place. I know people do not do this intentionally. A lot of it comes from most people are use to talking to their friends face to face and everyone in the conversation knows what river they are talking about. When it comes to the internet, people tend to leave details out because typing is so much slower than speaking and also with all the abbreviations that have come around lately due to texting and cell phones, people just forget some of the minor details. I will also try and be a little more specific when describing a certain area.
