Down along the main creek, I found a hole where the trout just went mad for about 20 minutes about 5 pm. Best fishing experience I ever had, and I'm not much of a fisherman by any means.

I haven't fished here in Washington in the three years we've been here for that very reason. The fishing in Dillon was fantastic. Cuttthroats are a fun fish to catch. I used to go into a mountain lake that had 18 inch cutts and you would cast a big may fly out and then watch the fish swim up from the depth and take your fly. It was awesome! Throw in a bunch or 24 inch browns and rainbows on the Beaverhead river and you can see where one would get spoiled.
