Title: Idaho trout fishing
Post by: TeacherMan on September 14, 2024, 08:08:10 PM: Had nothing going on today and thought we’d give one of our local ponds at around 3k feet elevation a try. It’s been getting cool at night and figured it would help the trout bite. I took a couple of my littles out and went fishing for about two hours. We kept a dozen and let go at least as many. Anyone hunting Idaho this Fall I’d recommend bringing a rod, these will make a great breakfast tomorrow.

I’m back to regularly scheduled programming fishing my go-to river south of you and the bite was fantastic this last week with the snow leaving in a hurry.

Is that a trout magnet you're using? Heard they're effective on rainbows
