Blast from the Past / 1967: Showing his catch from the Snake River

Richard Rhimer, of Spokane, displays two steelhead he caught while fishing on the Snake River in this photo taken in 1967 on the dock at DeChenne’s Marina in Clarkston, in the vicinity of where Swallows Park is now. He was the father of Ray Rhimer, of Clarkston, who submitted this photo. The family lived at Spokane at the time, but spent time every fall fishing in the Lewiston-Clarkston Valley. The canine fishing partner pictured is their dog, Teddy.
