Idaho Fish Report

There is no snow on ground, and you can launch a boat at the marina and both east side boat ramps at First Point and Rainbow Cove. There are courtesy docks in the water at all locations. Fishing continues to be very good for cutthroat trout; anglers are catching a few lake trout too. Anglers targeting the trout are fishing with tube jigs tipped with cisco and/or worms right on the bottom in 45 to 65 feet of water. The hot spots are off the rockpile near Ideal Beach, Second Point and along Cisco Beach toward Rainbow Cove. Some anglers are trolling and doing well using flatfish, Rapalas and dodger/squid combinations. The Bear Lake whitefish spawning is pretty much over and we haven't received reports of whitefish caught in the last week. Remember, all cutthroat trout without a healed fin clip must be released.
