You need to take a drive along Map Rock Road and check out the access areas. Or you can drive the Owyhee County side of the river along the Marsing-Murphy road. You should also check out the Marsing ponds. There are lots of trout there and it is stocked regularly.
Or, if you are now in Boise, you can find lots of access from Swan Falls dam downstream, or Celebration Park upstream.
I fish the Snake between Homedale and Swan Falls over 100 times every year and fishing is good. There are lots of smallmouth and catfish. Over the years I have only caught 1 rainbow trout in that 52 miles of river. But I fish for smallmouth bass, not trout. It was a dandy 20 inch rainbow, and it took a 4" plastic worm.
