Club Fish Day- Snake River Texas Rapids

We don't catch a lot of walleye on the Snake River, but we often catch some of the biggest fish of the year during the fall at this Club Fish Day. Texas Rapids is a Core of Engineers boat launch with a large parking lot. There is ample room to stay overnight and it is free. The lot is mainly level for your rig and sports a large grassy area for tent camping. The only amenities are toilets and garbage collection. The launch features a long dock where you can tie up to overnight , if desired, with no fee.

Club Fish Day - Potholes

Meet at Sampsons Pit public launch, 0900 AM.

Our third Club Fish Day is scheduled for Potholes Reservoir on July 9th. Sampson’s Pit Boat launch has a very large somewhat paved, but mostly graveled parking lot. You can stay in the parking lot overnight without paying a fee. Some campers circle up and have a camp fire if allowed. There are no hookups, but two pit toilets are available.

Mardon Resort, about a mile west of the boat launch, features full hookups and/or tent camping with full bath & showers. The resort has a small store featuring some food and a cafe, but mostly stocks tackle. They have an excellent pay launch and boat gas at the launch.

Fishing should be very good this time of year as the reservoir is usually full pool.
