FishingName a species, strain or type of trout and it will almost certainly be found in Idaho. From beautiful mountain lakes to the streams flowing in the bottoms of some of America’s deepest canyons, trout in all their forms lure anglers to Idaho waters. Warm water species like Bass, Crappie, and Bluegill are also abundant throughout Idaho and are fast becoming a favourite sportfishing pursuit. The primary location for both species of bass are along the Snake River drainage ranging from South Central Idaho through South Western Idaho into the North Central region making the Twin Falls area a prime thoroughfare for these feisty fish. Crappie, Bluegill, perch and other spiny rays can be found almost anywhere there is a small impoundment of water throughout Idaho.
