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.
