Salmon River Bass Fishing
Drift Boat Fishing Trips
- Guided Small Mouth Bass
- Rod, Reel and Tackle Provided
- Lunch and Drinks Included
As summer heats up and the waters of the Salmon River Canyon warm, smallmouth bass take center stage as the ultimate sport fish. Don’t let their size fool you — these powerful 1–4 lb fighters deliver an exciting challenge on light tackle and make every catch a thrill. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or a beginner, this guided trip is a perfect way to enhance your summer adventure.
With warm, crystal-clear water and stunning canyon scenery, conditions are ideal for both fishing and relaxation. On most days, depending on skill level and weather, it’s common to reel in 20 to 40 bass. The prime season runs from June through September.
You can choose between a full-day trip (7–8 hours of fishing with a deli lunch included) or a half-day trip (5 hours of fishing with drinks and snacks provided). You’re also welcome to bring your favorite beverages — just let us know how much cooler space you’ll need.
Looking to extend the excitement? Combine your bass fishing trip with a drift boat adventure, jet boat tour into the wilderness, lodging package, or even a whitewater rafting trip for the ultimate Salmon River vacation experience.
