Mike, just saw this post. Been a long while since I fished for Mountain Whitefish on rivers, but I catch a bunch every year on the Clearwater. If I were targeting places, I'd look at holes like the corner just below Gibbs, the Big Eddy at the Lenore rest stop, Harpers Bend (both the inside and outside of the corner). I used to use small flies tipped with maggots, in the old days.....
If you want a bunch of big, firm fleshed, Lake Superior whitefish, come to Flathead Lake the last week of July-September. Limit is 100 per day, average weight 3-4 pounds, with bigger often taken. They fight better than lake trout and eat really well. Had some last night and again tonight.
50 years of foolin' fish.
