Tiny Trout, Big Conservation Win | Boise News
from Boise News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A tiny trout, just 13.6 inches and 0.71 pounds, just shattered a state record in Idaho — and it’s a conservation win. Angler Luke Anderson caught the certified-weight record for Westslope cutthroat trout, part of a new Idaho program that lets anglers chase records without killing the fish. This species, once threatened by habitat loss and invasive species, is making a comeback — now found in 80% of its historic range. Idaho Fish and Game is celebrating Luke’s catch not just for the record, but for helping keep the conservation momentum alive.
