BOATING -- An updated Idaho Fishing and Boating Access Guide with a list of access sites on lakes and streams is available at state Fish and Game Department offices, including the Panhandle Region headquarters, 2885 W. Kathleen Ave. in Coeur d'Alene.

The guide includes regional maps of fishing and boating access sites.

Access locations managed by Fish and Game also are presented in an alphabetical list that includes available amenities and special access features, such as boat ramps, docks, restrooms, camping and ADA fishing access.

The guide also is available online in Idaho Fish and Game's interactive Fishing Planner.  This includes the added feature of being able to toggle to satellite imagery of the maps. You can zoom in on a  photo of a site and see it in amazing sharpness and detail.
