Mountain home is a hidden gem. I live near Rexburg now but grew up in Mtn Home. There are more possibilities for public land access and for the most part less crowds. There is also more variety of fish. If you hunt waterfowl and upland game you are in luck. PM me for more info if you'd like. Good luck with your move

I moved to Mountain Home from Boise back in April.
Strike has just about every type of fish you can catch in Idaho and is only about 1/2 an hour away. It's a phenomenal fishery for rainbow trout, perch, crappie, bass (smallmouth mostly, some big largemouth), catfish, sturgeon and even carp if you're into that.
There's also a small fly shop that opened downtown earlier this year. The guy doesn't keep a whole lot of materials in stock, but he can order just about anything you want at prices comparable to Cabela's and other shops.
