Idaho Fish Report

The Willow Beach Fish Hatchery plants trout at Willow Beach every Friday year-round. Trout anglers catch the fish with a variety of baits, including worms, PowerBait and lures. Striped bass key in on the trout, so trout imitations are a good choice. Further south, catfish have been hanging in the backs of coves with anglers having the most success at night. The Cottonwood Cove area has been productive. Anglers are using light-colored spinnerbaits for black bass but also have caught catfish with them. Most of the bass are hitting plastic baits near the edges of coves.
