great pics.....got any trout in that stream?

I was taking a walk about a mile from my house. As I crossed a bridge, I saw a guy peering down into the water. He showed me a very large fish, which he believed to be a salmon. Yes, there are trout in there, also some planted steelhead. I don't fish, but I see a lot of people who do. Those pictures are the Boise River, and were taken about 2.5 miles from the center of downtown Boise. The city has done a very nice job of preserving the river and the riverbanks. The greenbelt goes about 10-15+ miles on both sides of the river in both directions. Some of it is dirt path, reserved for walkers (no bicycles), and some is paved, as can be seen in one of the pictures. There is a loop that I walk with my girlfiend along the river. It involves one footbridge and one road bridge. It is about 3.5 miles, and is very refreshing to walk. The proximity to the river is one of the main reasons that we bought the condo that we did. The river is also a very popular spot to float in rafts and inner tubes. The float takes about 2 hours and many people do that on a hot Boise day.

DRTH,

Would you mind giving the forum a little more specific directions to your pad? We might want to come visit you. Got room for a few thousand of us?

Great Pictures, I too first thought about fishing that stream :L you may want to give it a try, catch and release is great fun and it preserves the resource.

Hi DRTH -

Sweet pics - Thanks!

I took the following picture while I was sitting at a poker run for my father's club - it was a small park in the country - with the refurbished covered bridge pictured here.




About 15 minutes later it started hailing...

best regards -
