A second restoration project is underway at the Pack River Delta, and Idaho Department of Fish and Game officials said things may look crazy on site for a little longer while construction finishes up.
This spring marks the sixth year of netting operations on the lake by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game to help keep the walleye population under control. IDFG officials said the netting operation will begin next week on Monday, April 10 and run through April 28.
Walleye gill netting operations take place on weekdays only over a three-week period each spring. Fish and Game officials said crews target walleye grouping up to spawn in the shallow, northern sections of the lake. Among the sites identified for netting sites are portions of the Clark Fork Delta near Sheepherder Point, the Pack River Delta, Sunnyside area, Oden Bay, Kootenai Point and in the vicinity of the railroad bridge near Sandpoint.
