The Flathead Valley is the place to catch your “perfect fish.” Record size lake trout, rainbow trout,
large mouth bass and other fish species are found in the many lakes and rivers and provide the serious angler
with days of enjoyment.
The Montana Adventure Company, located in the lobby of Grouse Mountain Lodge, can arrange half-day and full-day
guided trips that include all equipment for both lake fishing and fly-fishing.
The Whitefish area is home to over 1500 lakes in a 50-mile radius, including the 3,350-acre Whitefish Lake,
as well as Flathead Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi. The North Fork and main stem of the Flathead River is listed as blue-ribbon trout rivers.
Streams open the third Saturday in May through November 30. Some streams have extended whitefish and catch-and-release fishing for trout from December through the third Saturday in May. Lakes are open the entire year, with some exceptions. Which makes for great winter ice fishing.
