Ask Fish and Game

Q: I want to take my grandson fishing. Where is a good place where a kid can catch a fish? A: The Idaho Department of Fish and Game maintains Family Fishing Waters around the state. Family Fishing Waters are geared toward families, young anglers and others who may be wetting a line for the first time. They are regularly stocked and generally contain species that are relatively easy to catch. Family Fishing Waters are easy to access and the rules for fishing there are simple: the limit is six fish. You don't have to worry about bait restrictions, size restrictions or any other restrictions that apply to many fisheries in Idaho.
