I moved to CDA a few years ago and have been enjoying all that the area has to offer. Any other north Idaho guys on here or anybody new to the area that would like to give ice fishing a try? I do most of my hunting and fishing by myself but wouldn't mind some company. Here's a bass from last season.
Sounds familiar. I spent days hunting in November only to come home to a 10 pt buck chasing a doe in my front yard. Here is the guy I’m after this year.
I no longer live in CA and i never filled a X10 tag, but I did hunt it once. After a few days of hunting the monache meadows area we started to hike into the wilderness area on the east side of the monache meadows. This will lead you to the PCT and a bridge that will cross over the river. If I...
I live in Coeur d'Alene and see more deer in town than in the woods! Im used to hunting areas where you can sit and glass. I like to see farther than 40 yards. I am new here but I focus on timberlands that are open to public, clear cuts, and last year I spent some time on the reservation. If you...
The tag is only good for a cow for 5 days. I took some vacation during that time but I wont pass a shot at any legal elk. This is only my second year here and last year I was happy to get under 100 yards from a spike. Meat is my priority for elk this year.

Yeah I found ice shanty and the guys in there pointed me to some fishable lakes. At some point I might head down to cascade for the big perch. For now I’ll stick close to home.
Well I was planning on trout/ crappie/ perch on the rods and dead baits under the tip ups for pike/ burbot/ tiger muskies. Ill fish for anything though. At some point id like to get my kids out on the ice for some panfish too. I saw some of those shelters and they look pretty cool but also...
They got me a sled, a couple of the small rod and reel combos, a tip up, an auger, ice scoop, and a bucket with a padded top. I spooled up my reels with some 6 lb test, got some tungsten jigs, some spoons and a few steel leaders. I'm ready to get on the hardwater and start drilling holes. I...
