Activities

Fishing

Northern Idaho is famous for its secluded mountain lakes, clear blue streams, and excellent fishing holes. Bring your gear along for a trail-hike into the wilderness, and fish the cool waters of a mountain lake or stream. River anglers can fish the waters of the wild and scenic North Fork of the Coeur d’Alene and the St. Joe. Catch wily cutthroat and rainbow trout, kokanee, white and other game fish. With the abundance of great local fishing, you can find your own paradise, whether you prefer a dry fly or a tried-and-true lure.

Here are some fishing resources to help you plan your excursion:
