SANDPOINT — A Bonner County man is pleading not guilty to guiding without a license on Priest Lake last summer.
Delbert Wayne Jepson made his initial appearance in magistrate court on Friday to answer to the misdemeanor charge. A trial date is pending.
The Idaho Outfitters & Guides Licensing Board began investigating Jepson last April, after receiving a report that he was guiding fishing trips without a license. Agents from the board and the Idaho Department of Fish & Game posed as anglers and took a trip on June 4.
