You can fish one day in a desert canyon reservoir where smallmouth bass lurk in murky waters, and the next day be fishing a clear, cold lake where trout cruise beneath snowy peaks. That's the kind of variety you will find in Idaho's lakes and reservoirs.
Idaho rivers have some of the best trout fishing in the West, and much more. The Salmon, Snake and Clearwater rivers have great steelhead and salmon fishing, and you can find great warm-water fishing in the Snake River and at other low elevations.
Have gas prices cut into your fishing budget? An easy way to beat sky-high fuel costs is to fish closer to home. There are good fishing waters within the Treasure Valley and nearby.
One of the really cool things about Idaho is how hard it is to narrow down a couple of places that have awesome fishing for each month of the year. The reason it's hard is because during most months, there are so many good ones from which to choose.
