The large strainer mentioned below is at approximately 45.39232, -117.66820, about a half mile before the little Minam confluence. As noted there are limited opportunities to eddy out on either side of the river beforehand. We eddied out 50 yards upstream and lined our boats through a small 6ft wide channel that has been cut out on far river right.
