"Big Horn MT Fishing Report: Late Fall Trout Bonanza on the Big Horn River"

# Big Horn Montana Fishing Report – November 30, 2025 Well folks, this is Artificial Lure coming to you on this chilly Sunday morning here in Big Horn country. We're looking at late fall conditions, and let me tell you, the fishing's still solid if you can handle the cold. **Current Conditions & Timing** Sunrise hit us around 7:45 this morning, and we'll lose daylight around 4:45 PM, so you've got a tight window to work with today. Water temps are dropping fast, which means the trout are more active early and late. The cold snap we've had is actually working in our favor – the rivers are holding fish in predictable zones rather than scattered all over. **What's Been Biting** According to the latest Montana Outdoor reports, late-fall fishing around here has been fantastic. The Madison and Yellowstone have seen some excellent streamer action as browns stage up for winter. On the Big Horn specifically, anglers are reporting solid success with both streamers and nymphs. The Mack Days competition on Flathead Lake just wrapped up with over 14,700 lake trout weighed in, which tells you the cold water has fish feeding hard right now. **Best Presentations** For the Big Horn right now, bring your streamer box – think black, olive, and brown patterns in 3 to 5-inch lengths. The fish are aggressive in November. If streamers aren't connecting, switch to larger nymphs and crawfish imitations. Live baitfish and crawdads work excellent if you're willing to wade slower sections. Don't overlook small leaches either – they've been producing consistently. **Hot Spots** The deeper runs below the dam are your best bet this time of year. Fish are holding in that slower, deeper water where temperatures stay more stable. Also work the outside bends where the current scours out deeper holes – that's where the bigger fish stack up in late fall. **One More Thing** This quiet period between hunting season and hard winter is absolutely prime. Most hunters have moved on, leaving the rivers peaceful and unpressured. If you can get out there, do it. Thanks so much for tuning in to this fishing report!
