I love snorkling clear rivers. I certainly see much bigger fish than I catch! Here's a cool story. Scuba of mild Culebra fame, was snorkling the Black one hot day. There were a bunch of semi-toasted women on the same sandbar as our group. He pops out of the water and says "Watch this" and dives down and comes up with a 4 pound smallmouth in his hands. We were all amazed until I got him to admit that the fish had been caught on a lure that was tangled around a rootwad. He had just gone down grabbed the trapped fish and removed the lure. Catch and release, doncha know.
A couple other float rivers worthy of note - The Eleven Point and the Buffalo in Arkansas. Gorgeous. All are federally protected rivers, like the Current and Jack's Fork. The Black is losing its appeal as more and more property is developed there. Wilderness Lodge and its 1400 acres is now owned by a logger (?!?!?!?)
