Idaho Fish Report

Lake of the Woods has been stocked heavily with trophy rainbow trout and fishing will be good. Most fish are around 18 inches when stocked. It’s easier to catch these fish from a boat but early spring will have trout actively feeding in the shallows before the water heats up and pushes them out. Water temperatures are still very cold but fishing for cold water fish like brown trout, kokanee, yellow perch and some smallmouth bass might be worth a shot.

Fishing for yellow perch will also be a good bet. The lake is dominated by stunted yellow perch. Very small bait and hooks will catch these fish. For recent updates on fishing, you can call the resort at 1-866-201-4194.
