It feels like summer in northern Idaho and anglers across the region have been enjoying the nice weather and bountiful fishing opportunities on our many lakes, ponds and streams. To add to the fun, over 32,000 rainbow trout sized between 10 to 12 inches are set to be stocked in Panhandle waterbodies this June.
With Free Fishing Day on June 8, there’s no excuse not to take advantage of these freshly stocked trout. No fishing license is needed anywhere in Idaho. All other fishing regulations still apply. For a list of statewide events check out https://idfg.idaho.gov/press/free-fishing-day-june-8
The number of trout actually released may change due to weather, water conditions, equipment problems or access issues. If delays occur, trout will be released when conditions become favorable.
