In Idaho, you're never far from great fishing!
- Steelhead trout and salmon make one of the longest spawning runs of any native fish in the world, swimming 1,800 miles to the ocean and back. Fish for steelehad in the swift waters of the Snake, Salmon or Clearwater rivers.
- Native cutthroat trout have lived in Idaho waters for centuries, and offer great fishing for Idaho anglers.
- Sturgeon can be found in the Snake River, Kootenai and Salmon Rivers and are the largest freshwater fish in North America.
- Warm water species like large and small mouth bass, catfish, croppie and perch, are fast becoming popular among a new generation of fisherman.
Hiring a guide, or "outfitter," can be a great addition to your fishing experience, as many offer guided trips to new waters, as well as lessons for both beginners and the experienced alike.
