A friend sent me a copy of the book Yellowstone Fishes. It has a
Checklist of Fish Known in Yellowstone Waters. Fawn Lake is in the
checklist. It has brook trout.

If the so-called Fawn Lake is such a great fishing spot then
those who hiked up there last year will certainly want to hike
up there again this year.


I don't recall anyone making a claim of fantastic fishing at Fawn Lake.


I recall someone recommending that so-called lake as a great
place to camp and fish. Someone was wrong. What remains to be
seen is if someone will be pertinacious enough to hike up there
for the second year in a row.


why don't you google it and see what i actually said. but, now that
i've been there, seen the lake, seen the rising fish in the lake, fished
two of the small streams (fawn creek and the gardner) near the lake, and
caught lots of larger-than-carolina-size brookies in them, i'll
certainly recommend it as a great place to camp and fish...this time,
i'd suggest taking a float tube along though. the park recommends it as
a camping area; at least one backcountry outfitter advertises it as one
of his offered camping/fishing trips in the park, and the fellas at blue
ribbon describe big brook trout taken from fawn lake....and you now say
it's a so-called lake after initially denying its existence.

the only one being "pertinacious" about the lake is you...but, then, we
both know you're wrong...which, all things considered, i regret to admit
openly, is pretty satisfying.
