Idaho Fish Report

Expect snow at Hyatt Lake over the weekend.  Hyatt Lake is 35 percent full and the boat ramp is not accessible at this time. Inflatables or kayaks can launch from the banks. It is deep enough around the dam to fish from the shore, and this can be a good option for still-fishing bait.

Hyatt Lake has a lot of weeds, which can be problematic for fishing. Now that the water is low, anglers may have to adjust their techniques. There are some large, fat and healthy trout in Hyatt that are likely to bite on bait fished from the bottom or by trolling bait.

Bass are also available at Hyatt, but will be slow to bite now that the weather has cooled. 

Hyatt Lake has been stocked with our annual “fall fingerlings.” These trout are not of legal size, but should be by the spring, please be cognizant of the size of fish you are catching and gently release these smaller fish to grow until next year.
