Yellowstone Lake
Yellowstone National Park

Have you ever seen a more beautiful spot to do some lake fishing? The lake at Yellowstone National Park is absolutely full of Yellowstone cutthroat trout, longnose dace, redside shiners, longnose suckers, and lake chubs. The lake is thought to hold the largest inland population of cutthroat trout found anywhere in the world. Where Yellowstone Lake and Yellowstone River come together, the bottom has a nice gravel bottom. That outlet has been a major spawning area for the Yellowstone cutthroat trout for as long as the park service have been studying the cutthroat trout populations. Years of overfishing in this area had caused a significant decline in cutthroat populations, however, fishing restrictions impossed by the park service have largely corrected that problem.
