Lake Hebgen

Local as well as seasonal anglers agree that Hebgen Lake provides some of the
best dry fly lake fishing that Montana has to offer. Hebgen Lake offers scenic
surroundings, excellent fishing, as well as convenient proximity to West
Yellowstone, Montana.
The Madison Arm of Hebgen Lake lies to the west at the junction of US 287 and US
highway 191.
The Lake stretches more than 16 miles and is 4 miles wide at its widest point.
With such a large area, Hebgen Lake offers tons of excellent fishing. However,
its size along with being located on a high plateau near Yellowstone National
Park, creates extremely windy conditions at times. Because of the winds, float
tubing options are limited. If you insist on float tubing, it is advised to stay
within the sheltered bays. Other crafts such as canoes, motor boats, pontoon
boats, and inflatable kayaks are suggested instead because they are generally
safer and allow the angler to cover more water in a short period of time.

If you are interested in renting a boat, visit the Madison Arm Resort and Marina
on the south shore. If you are on the north shore, either the Yellowstone
Holiday or the Kirkwood Resort will provide you with an appropriate craft.
Hebgen Lake boasts good populations of both rainbow and brown trout. The trout
found here are large and average around 14-16 inches, making Hebgen Lake a
popular destination for experienced as well as novice anglers.
Hebgen Lake has quality hatches of Tricos in the late spring and early summer.
During the Trico hatch, anglers are able to catch trout right from the shoreline
because the Trico hatch in shallow bays. Successful fly-fishing during this
season can only be done when the winds are clam and light. When fishing the
Trico hatch, be prepared with light gear and long leaders. Caddisfly hatches
occur later in the summer and happen regularly.
There are several places to stay around Hebgen Lake. You can choose between
three public campgrounds or several hotel options. Lonesomehurst campground
offers easy access to the lake as well as scenic views, potable water, and a
boat ramp. The other two campgrounds, Cherry Creek and Spring Creek, charge no
fee and provide drinkable water and pit toilets. Beaver Creek Cabin, Madison Arm
& Resort Marina, and Parade Rest Ranch, provide excellent accommodations for the
non-camping angler.
