WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Hebgen Lake is a 4,000-acre reservoir on the Madison River in Gallatin County, Montana, just west of Yellowstone National Park, one of the most celebrated trout fishing lakes in the Rocky Mountain West. It supports brown trout, rainbow trout, and potentially westslope cutthroat trout in the cold, clear waters fed by the legendary Madison River, within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Spot Features: Hebgen Lake is a 4,000-acre reservoir on the Madison River in Gallatin County, Montana, near Yellowstone National Park, featuring cold, clear water and dramatic mountain scenery. Brown and rainbow trout are targeted by trolling and fly fishing, the Madison River inlet and outlet areas are particularly productive during hatch periods. The lake was the site of a major 1959 earthquake. Seasonality: Brown trout and rainbow trout are the primary year-round sport fish at Hebgen Lake, most active in spring after ice-out and in fall during the famous Madison River Late Season hatch. Westslope cutthroat trout may be present in connected tributary streams. The lake is famous for the Salmonfly hatch on the Madison River which attracts fish to the lake margins.
