looking for somewhere to hunt mule deer in Idaho, never hunted Idaho. Looking to get into the wilderness with a backpack, somewhere that has some good fly fishing. Im from CO so hopefully southern Idaho. Thanks
 
Every unit in Idaho has places you can backpack into. It does not need to be slated "Wilderness" to get in the back country. What is your desired dates and what kind of terrain will give a lot more of an idea of where to go. Some places a 2000 foot climb will get you away from 90% of the hunters. Some times it is a 3 mile hike to do the same.

I would rather not see one person, don't really care about the quality of bucks, would like to catch a lot of fish don't care about size. Im a Brooke trout fanatic, I've been looking for a great place to catch big Brookies for 34 years and have not found one in CO or WY. I have caught some super nice Brookies but still on the quest.

Looking to get away from it all for a while and figured a fishing/hunting trip to Idaho would be fun. I am in top condition and can hike anywhere I need to. Probably a September archery hunt would be best.

Thanks again!

If anyone needs a place to hunt deer in CO let me know I can point you in the right direction.
 
Up above Sunbeam Idaho
The South side of the Frank Church wildness
Heard there is some good fishing up there to
 
I hunted the middlefork since the 80's. That is a good hunt. Fly with Rays out of Cascade. Work hard for a decent buck. Some airstrips have hot springs. Buy a wolf tag. To truly hunt the middle fork you need to be in shape and its not for the weak.
 
If your driving from Colorado, salmon or challis.you could also come in from Montana into the McGruder corridor and access the Church on the south side or the Selway on the north side.
 
Probably depends on your definition of big brook trout, but I know an area that has some good brookies, it's also OTC Archery deer in Sept. PM me for more info.
 
Ha, big Brook Trout in Colorado are over 10". I have a place I go to in Colorado that I catch 12-14" Brook Trout which is the best I have found. I will PM you.
