November trout stocking schedule for the Salmon Region

Stocking of all waters is tentative and dependent on conditions (safety concerns); dates may change due to weather or staffing constraints.

Hayden Creek Pond is a family friendly fishing area located along Hayden Creek Road three miles south of the Highway 28 junction. Anglers will find ample bank fishing opportunities, picnic shelter, grills, and a dock for anglers with limited mobility.

Hyde Creek Pond is a small irrigation pond that provides good bank fishing for beginning anglers. This pond is located on private property south of Salmon on the road to the Sunset Heights subdivision. Remember to be respectful and clean up any litter before you leave.

Kid's Creek Pond is a small pond located along Highway 93 in Salmon that consistently provides good trout fishing. A fishing dock, restrooms, and pavilion with picnic tables, makes this a convenient fishing hole for those short on time.

Fishing for hatchery rainbow trout can be a great way to introduce new anglers to the sport by using simple, inexpensive setups like worm/marshmallow combinations or commercial baits like PowerBait® or Crave, placed either near the bottom or below a bobber. The Learn to Fish webpage offers diagrams for basic bait rigs.

Most Idaho waters are open to fishing year-round, but some may have slightly different rules. Be sure to pick up a 2025-27 Idaho Fishing Seasons and Rules Booklet , which outlines license requirements, season dates, special regulations and bag limits at any Idaho Fish and Game offices or most sporting goods stores statewide.

For detailed information about these and other fishing waters in Idaho, including maps, fish species, facilities, and rules, please visit the Idaho Fish Planner on Fish and Game's website.
