Idaho Angler Lands New Catch-and-Release Record Cutthroat Trout Posted by TBC Press on: 06/29/20

Congratulations to Tom Weadick of Coeur d'Alene on a landing a new catch-and-release state record Westslope cutthroat trout. Weadick caught the 21-inch cutthroat while flyfishing the North Fork Coeur d'Alene River on June 19. Hoping to catch a large trout, Tom came prepared with a tape measure and camera and captured the moment to document the catch. The previous record of 19.5 inches held by Dwaine Hasenoehrl has stood since... READ MORE

PRIEST LAKE

Priest Lake is found in the northernmost part of the Idaho panhandle, 80 miles to the northeast of Spokane, Washington. The northern end of the Lake extends to within 15 miles of the US-Canada border.

Angling opportunities are wide and varied at Priest Lake. Fish for trophy-size Mackinaw (lake trout) in the Lake, or try fishing for cutthroat in one of the nearby alpine lakes. If fly-fishing is your thing, you’ll enjoy hiking to one of the numerous streams in the Priest basin in search of brook trout. In the winter months, there’s great ice fishing to be enjoyed out on Cavanaugh Bay.

During the summer months, Mackinaw seek cooler waters at the bottom of the Lake. Try downriggers, wire line, lead line, and jigging to present lures near the lake bottom; many trophy-size fish have been landed this way, including the current State record holder, a 571/2-pounder that was landed way back in 1971!

When the weather is cooler in the spring and fall, Mackinaw can be seen swimming near to the surface of the Lake and in relatively shallow water. For the best experience at this location, it’s recommended to hire a good local guide who will also be up-to-speed with local fishing restrictions and regulations.

Note that the year-round bag limit for trout per person is six. Also, there’s a strict catch-and-release policy in force for bull trout and the native Westslope cutthroat.

BEST TIME: Morning streamer fishing is good, mid afternoon the dry fly fishing picks up

MORE: We were on the water Saturday Sunday, and Monday. Steamer fishing has been great and the water clarity has been good. Fish have been looking up and chasing streamers! We have been swinging flies with trout spey rods using heavy poly leaders and finding fish a few on the swing and others stripping. If you are floating the river, fish the side channels with the higher flows, you won't be disappointed. By Monday afternoon the river bumped up above 8000 cfs and the water clarity dropped some on the lower river. We were still picking up fish despite the lower visibility and the river bumping up over 1500 cfs in one day.
