fishing

If you've been a resident of Idaho for 6 months - and have proof; you qualify for a resident fishing license.  If you live out-of-state or still claim residency in another state then you need a nonresident fishing license or short-term (1 - 4 day) fishing license.  If you want to fish for salmon or steelhead and haven't been in Idaho 6 months - you can buy a 3-day salmon and steelhead license that includes a permit to harvest a bag limit of salmon or steelhead. We also have fishing licenses for disabled individuals, juveniles, seniors and veteran's.  Check with the local regional office or call our headquarters for details.
