Hi there,
I just noticed that in Oregon, kids can use 2 poles as long as the water allows for 2 pole permits...
Can kids fish with more than one 1 fishing pole in idaho?
I can't seem to find the answer on the F&G wbsite.

if they are too young to buy a licence they can not get a two pole licence. Ron

Any age may purchase the 2-pole permit. Children may also purchase salmon and steel head permits if they want there own limits. I have sold Fishing and Hunting licenses for many years.

I might be wrong but I think they can buy the permit without the license . If not it is age discrimination . Curt G.

I ttried to buy a two pole permit for a kid and they would not sell it to me. They said they needed a licence to issue the permit to. Ron

"Unlicensed nonresident children under the age of 14 also may buy a two-pole permit if they are accompanied by a valid fishing license holder. Any fish caught by the nonresident child, however, would be included in the bag and possession limit of the license holder."
Nice..
So, I need to let my buddy know when his kid comes to see him from out of state, he better not buy a two pole permit or they will ned to stop fishing before the rest of us [crazy]
If they (non rsident kids) have a two pole permit, they lose their "bag limit completely"?

I believe non-resident children's bag counts towards the license holder no matter what. Resident kids have there own bag limits and do not need to be with a licensed person.

"Nonresident children under 14 years of age
must be accompanied by the holder of a valid fishing license
and their fish must be included in the license holder’s limit
in order to fish without a license, or they may purchase a
nonresident license and have their own limit."
This is on page 51 of the current regs.

I'd buy the kid an out of state license for the time they are here then. This is just patently unfair.

Good find, I had not seen this release. I see the date was 2008, I tried to buy my son a two pole permit I think in 2007. He turned 14 in 2008 so it was not a problem after that. Ron

So if someone from out of state brings three kids, they only get to catch two trout each unless the parent forks out for a temp license for all of them? That could get expensive.
