Quake Lake during a Callibaetis hatch is a good place to be. The dead
trees are surreal. I've never fished Hebgen. It seems too large and
intimidating.




Quake is, indeed, a nice place to fish although my feeling about it vs
Hegben is reversed from yours. Most of the time I've spent on Hebgen has
been on the Madison arm and it feels relatively small and easy to access
rowing my kickboat. The one ramp on Quake seems a long pull away from the
inlet area that has given me my best action. All the dead trees certainly
is surreal and a bit spooky, especially if you're slowing kicking backwards
and run into one under the water G

The boat ramp on Quake Lake is another spooky thing. It's the old road
before the earthquake buried the rest of it. There are dead people under
there.

Willi and I ran into an interesting and rather strange guy who turned us
on to Quake Lake. He disdained the Madison and instead fished Quake with
mostly orangish streamer-like flies. He said it was the jit. :-)
