Hi, I'm new to the forum having just found it. It's a wealth of information that the most up to date I've found. Thanks to all that post.
My wife and I both enjoy all types of fishing, but spend most of our time chasing bass. One of our favorite places is Paddock Valley Reservoir in east of Payette. Hard to get to but it was great fishing. HOWEVER, we made two trips there last year and never got a bite. We sort of figured maybe it had gone dry at the end of 2010??
Anyways, its a long and hard trip in from Boise and I was wondering if anyone's been there this year or had luck late last year before I try it again.
Thanks,
Bart
PS -- fished Lake Lowell in our boat on Saturday. My wife hooked a couple bass, landed one. We were trying to fish in 12 inches of water where we could actually see the fish, but at mid-day they were spooky and we were like a bull in a china closet trying to get past the brush.
