Fish species in Alpine Creek Lake #13

Official stocking history

Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.

Alpine Creek Lake #13 is a lake in Blaine County, Idaho and covers about 16.57 acres.

On a water as small as Alpine Creek Lake #13, one weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Alpine Creek Lake #13 include Arctic Grayling and Westslope Cutthroat Trout.

Arctic Grayling have also been stocked here; that proves fish were released, but it does not promise that they are still common or easy to catch.

How to Read the Water

On a check of nearby water near a channel bend beside useful cover, do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself.

Season by Season

While using a simple check of moving water near the edge of deeper water away from empty shoreline, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During the first pass near a creek-side turn under flat light, a light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control.

On a short evening pass near a narrow cove before changing depth, record the wind, water color, depth along the active edge, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
