Idaho Fish Report

Most of the Boulder Mountain lakes close to fishing for the winter on November 1. October can provide some of the best fishing of the year for all species, and you'll often have the lakes to yourself because mane people are focused on hunting. Try using flies, jigs, lures or natural baits like nightcrawlers and grasshoppers. The Quiet Fly Fisher fly shop reports good fishing, though you'll need to be patient and to try a few different patterns. They recommend cream and light olive scuds, purple prince nymphs, pheasant tails and callibaetis nymphs. Fishing has been best in the afternoons because of ice in the early morning. Call the fly shop at 435-616-2319 for up-to-date conditions and fishing reports.
