The Spokane River flows 111 miles from Lake Coeur d'Alene in Idaho through eastern Washington to Lake Roosevelt, which is part of the Columbia River system. This diverse waterway carves through urban and rural landscapes, offering a variety of fishing environments from tranquil forest surroundings to scenic city views. The river system includes several dams, creating a mix of free-flowing sections and reservoir habitats that support different fish species and fishing experiences. With its beautiful natural setting characterized by lush greenery, rugged rock formations, and both shallow riffles and deep pools, the Spokane River provides anglers with a rewarding fishing experience throughout most of the year.
