If I purchase a 3 day or day at a time, non-resident salmon/steelhead permit do I need to purchase a fishing license also? Also, My son will be hunting in Custer County, is there a problem with any resent forest fires damage to the area?
Answer:
First, on the fire situation in Custer County. None of the significant fires experienced by Idaho in the summer of 2013 prompted closures in the Salmon/Custer County area. There have been closures in other parts of the state but the area where your son is hunting was spared.
Ok, our 3-day Salmon and Steelhead license includes a three-day fishing license and a salmon/steelhead permit. It was established to be an inclusive package to allow nonresidents a short-term option to fish for salmon or steelhead. You can not purchase a salmon or steelhead permit with any other temporary/short-term fishing license.
