Hebgen Lake-Quake Lake: 2/19/09
Flows out of Hebgen Dam have finally been dropped to 930 CFS after they hovered at around 1,100 CFS all winter. The lower flows make for easier wading and it certainly doesn’t hurt the fishing. The river has fished very well lately. Rainbow trout numbers seem to have been boosted by […]

Hebgen Lake-Quake Lake: 10/19/09
Between the lakes has fished well, especially on cloudy days. Baetis are still hatching and fish can be found rising to them, but we’ve had most of our best fishing dead drifting buggers or stonefly nymphs in the deeper runs. Some nice fish have turned up lately.
