Just got back from ID last Tuesday. Boise is a wonderful town. For good info: Riverkeeper on Broadway. And, yes, Cabela's is there (if you have any money left after you depart NV).
Barber Park is nice if you're fishing in town. We fished the S Fork Boise 5 miles downstream from Anderson Dam for a few days. Low water (no floating). Fishing fair. Weather tough (rain, wind). bwo's.
IF YOU CAN: Silver Creek (5 miles E of 20/93 junction). Owned by the Nature Conservancy. Bring a float tube. You can camp at the fish hatchery for nothing.
The Big Wood (Ketchum) had some good bwo hatches 1-4 pm.
We did 5 days floating the Owyhee at the end of July. pmd hatch extraordinaire. SMALLEST fish: 16 inches. However, the browns do not do aerobatics like rainbows. They will put a hell of a bend in your rod, though.
