I'd have my own kickboat. I've fished Hegben twice -- once in
Gherke's old Gink Keeps it Up drift boat of Warren's (with Willi),
and once in a float tube. The ideal boat for Hegben, IMO, would be a
motorized runabout.


Joe the Elder offers--I stayed in cabin on shore of Hegben for two
weeks on my first trip to Yellowstone area many years ago. Being new
to ff I took advice from local who loaned me a canoe. --___Cast in
front of gulper--damm if they swim in a straight line.!Use these small
flies--I had never seen a size 32?
But I was young and casting arm did not get tired so I remember
catching a few 20 plus inch trout. !!! Not as big as browns in NZ but
largest trout I have ever seen in US!



Actually, now now I think about it a little more, it wasn't Hebgen. It
was Quake Lake. I've never fished Hebgen.


scarlet... g


At least it wasn't Fawn Lake...or was it...
