The Idaho Department of Fish and Game is reminding all hunters and anglers that they must stop at all check stations whether they are successful or not.
Mike Demick with the department’s Clearwater Office says failing to stop at a posted check station is breaking the law, and can result in a citation being issued.
Demick comments on reasons why check stations are important:

Aside from the collection of critical information, check stations provide an opportunity for exchange between the public and the department, including information on illegal activities, observations on habitat or road conditions or suggestions for changes in management.
