This fishery is very fertile with lots of cover for fish and bait so it tends to grow larger-than-average trout. Annual trout stockings further enhance the fish populations making this a great place to go trout fishing in the west-central part of the state. There is plenty of access to the 17 miles of shoreline via campgrounds, boat launches and public access areas scattered all around the lake. A couple marinas and boat rentals are available during the season. Canoes, kayaks, pleasure and fishing boats are welcome here, however check with Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks for boating restrictions.
