Best Bass Water - Bassmaster-ND - 03-30-2004

This is from Field and Stream

Idaho
State record: 10 pounds 15 ounces, Mrs. M.W. Taylor, date unknown, Anderson Lake
Best water: Coeur d’Alene Lake. “The dam flooded some shallow waters that get warmer and produce better largemouth habitat, and we have relatively low exploitation.”
—Bill Horton, fisheries biologist, Idaho Department of Fish and Game

Sleeper: Lake Pend Oreille. “It’s a very big body of water, and the fourth deepest in the United States. But its dam also flooded shallow habitat in a few locations that provide refuge for some largemouths. And people just don’t go there for that kind of fishing.”
