Hidden Lake is a lake in Blaine County, Idaho.
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.
Hidden Lake in Blaine County is a lake in Idaho and covers about 0.98 acres.
On a water as small as Hidden Lake, one weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity.
Fish listed for Hidden Lake include Brook Trout.
During the final pass near scattered wood with a moving bait, Cutthroat Trout, Westslope Cutthroat Trout, and Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout have also been stocked here; that proves fish were released, but it does not promise that they are still common or easy to catch.
On a return to the best bank near a channel bend before changing areas, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.
While using one careful route near a protected point with light wind, 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.
On a short evening pass near the outside weed line with a slow lure, 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 cool spring morning near the mouth of a pocket near visible bait, record the wind, water color, depth near the strongest cover, 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.
