Big Horn Fishing Report: Late Fall Trout and Mack Days Action
from Big Horn Montana Fishing Report Today · host Inception Point AI
# Big Horn Montana Fishing Report - November 29, 2025 Well folks, this is Artificial Lure coming to you on this chilly Saturday morning here in Big Horn Country. Let me break down what's happening on the water today. We're looking at a cold November day—expect those frozen fingers and early darkness. Sunrise was around 7:45 AM and we're headed toward sunset at around 4:45 PM, so you've got a solid window to get out there if you haven't already. **Water Conditions & Fish Activity** The lower Madison is firing right now. We're talking consistent tailwater fishing with good flows that have the trout actively feeding. The Missouri River is also running steady and reliable—these tailwaters are your bread and butter this time of year. Even with Thanksgiving week bringing those cold mornings, the rivers are staying open and the fish are still aggressive. Lake trout anglers have been crushing it on Flathead Lake as part of the Fall Mack Days. Over 14,700 lake trout have been turned in, with Jerry Benson from Plains taking top honors. That's the kind of action you want to see heading into winter. **What's Working** For the rivers, you'll want to focus on nymphs and streamers. This is prime streamer season in Montana—the trout are looking to bulk up before winter really sets in. Think dark colors: black, dark olive, and maroon patterns work best. If you're going the nymph route, stick with your standard BWO patterns and midges. For Flathead Lake, the lake trout bite has been excellent on jigging presentations and tube jigs. Those fish are deep, so get your presentations down there where they're holding. **Hot Spots** Nelson Creek area is worth checking out if you're willing to venture north—anglers have been finding some solid action there. The Lower Madison sections near town are your reliable go-to spots with consistent bank access and good fish populations. **Getting Out There** Bundle up, hit the water during midday when it warms slightly, and focus on deeper holes and slower water. The cold weather actually concentrates the fish, making them easier to locate. Thanks for tuning in to this report! Make sure to subscribe for your daily updates from Big Horn Country and beyond.
