Rosebud Creek - Fishtail, Montana

We flew into Billings on our way to Bozeman for a quick 3 days of fly fishing.  We stopped on the way, just south of Columbus, Montana in a little town called Fishtail.  We stopped in the Fishtail General Store to ask directions to the Stillwater River access points and one of the locals suggested we fish Rosebud Creek.

Just past the Fishtail General Store is a fishing access road to the Rosebud Creek.  This area has a really nice campground and great water for wading.  In just an hour I caught two rainbows and a brownie.  The rainbows were about 10 inches and the brownie 14.  The rainbows were taken on a hopper and the brownie on a nymph dropper.

I would recommend the Rosebud.
