Guide Steve Cooper is the only person I have seen who has multi-day float and camp trips in the summer on the remote lower section of the Grand Ronde River for Smallmouth.
I know from sources that this is the number one place for sizable Smallmouth in a river in the West. It is considerable better than the Umpqua or John Day Rivers especially for the size of fish.
I highly recommend that you consider a trip with Steve on the GR this summer.

I floated and camped this stretch with Scott O'Donnell's Guide Service in the Fall for Steelhead in 2005.
