Whew! Field & Stream has released a list of America’s Top 20 Fishing Towns in their February issue and Idaho is not in the top 10. It's great that Boise is not even mentioned.
Glenwood Springs, Colo,. took top honors on the list. Mountain Home, Ark., was number two.
Traverse City, Mich., on the Great Lakes, took third. Montana claimed two spots in the list, with Bozeman coming in at fourth and Missoula taking the 11th spot. Minocqua, Wis., located five hours from Milwaukee, is the most remote spot in the top 10, coming in at number five.
Largely undiscovered by Florida’s many tourists, Apalachicola, at number six, is the highest ranking town on the Atlantic Coast. Seventh on the list, Nantucket, Mass., has a long seafaring tradition and is the only island in the top 20. Bend, Ore., eighth, Guntersville, Ala., ninth, and Morehead City, N.C. tenth, round out the top 10.
Driggs, Idaho, is number 14. Hopefully, no one will notice. We want to keep Idaho a secret and we might have dodged the publicity bullet with this story.
Good fishing and leave Idaho's super fishing a secret.
Idaho lucks out

Why Boise?
Farmers need all the water! Agriculture is more important than fish. Fish are a natural money maker & farms in a desert? Fish don't contribute to our misrepresentatives. Like soldiers they are expendable because $ dictates.
Campaign contributors trump fish & people. How would I feel if I watched my son or daughter die in Iraq & I had to pay contributors share of taxes too? Doesn't matter as long as Bush gets to be war president.
Won't be long & we can design a coin with his picture on it. We had the Kennedy Half Dollar. Maybe the Bush half wit. Na, help me out. A totally worthless coin with a pic of dub on it. That is what he's done to our economy so we should have a coin representing his accomplishments.
The non dollar? The Zero buck? Mission accomplished? That's it! A totally worthless coin with a pic of dub, the words mission accomplished over his pic & a dead fish on the back to portray his environmental poilcies & accomplishments.
Well, gee whiz...
All the tubers would be hitting all the dudes in wader pants so fast and hard you couldn't say AFLAC before the horror stories were live from the KTVB remote truck. Inner tubes and fishing rubes=ambulance, dudes.
Rocket Science ?
Didn't make the top 10 ?
Probably because There aren't any fish ?
Ya think ?
Shhhhh: don't tell any one our secret, Or they will all want to not catch any fish
More fish I'd reckon...
than sensible Statesman bloggers. Caveat caviar.
Hypocrisy at it's finest....
"We want to keep Idaho a secret and we might have dodged the publicity bullet with this story.

That's huge hypocrisy from Zimo, who's spent decades exposing many peoples' hidden honey holes for both hunting and fishing, favorite trails, etc, etc, etc.... I guess in this case, what's good for the goose is NOT good for the gander.. hmmmmm....
I'll be looking for those fish when they hit the border...
and the food bank is bankrupt : )

Zimo is just another homo.He probably fishes with Larry Craig.

Aren't you brave?
