Jim Moore Pond - Roberts, ID

This is a great place for kids to chase small perch. Ice fishing in particular, where kids can look down the hole and see a half-dozen fish compete for their bait, really holds their attention. In addition to yellow perch, tiger trout, and occasionally rainbow trout, are stocked here.
