Fish and Game to Focus on Fish at Fair Booth

The Eastern Idaho State Fair in Blackfoot is never short on fun, and this year it won't be short on fish either. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game will be returning to its booth inside the Agriculture Building at the fairgrounds, and the fish are coming back, too. Fish and Game's theme for the booth this year is "Something Fishy Is Goin' On," and there will be lots of displays and information to get people of all ages "hooked" on one of Idaho's most wonderful resources-its fisheries. Stop by and get a nose-to nose view of live fish, as well as to get a gander at mounts of trophy fish caught from around the region. Learn about Fish and Game's rod loaner program and Trout in the Classroom activities and curriculum for teachers. And discover more about Idaho's fish species and their habitats. Fish and Game's booth will be open from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m., Saturday, September 1 through Saturday, September 8.
