Summary
Shore access is plentiful, especially near the Bridger Bend Fishing Access Site off Highway 191—ideal for wade fishing. Drift boats can launch at nearby sites like Moose Creek for float trips. Prime fishing spots include cut banks, riffles, and slower eddies. Trout feed best spring through fall, with summer hatches bringing dry fly action. Effective baits include nymphs (Pheasant Tail, Hare’s Ear), dry flies (Elk Hair Caddis), and streamers. No piers or ramps, but easy trails provide riverbank access. Check local regulations for seasonal closures.

Angling Safety Guidelines
Check local fishing rules, seasons, size limits, and license requirements to ensure legal and sustainable angling.
Handle Fish Responsibly
Use wet hands, minimize air exposure, and release fish gently to improve survival rates when practicing catch-and-release.
Choose the Right Gear
Match your rod, line, and tackle to the species and conditions to increase success and reduce unnecessary harm to fish.
Respect the Waterway
Avoid disturbing habitat, prevent bank erosion, and keep a safe distance from spawning areas to protect ecosystems.
Keep It Clean
Pack out all line, hooks, bait containers, and trash—discarded gear can injure wildlife and degrade waterways.
