Camping/Fishing in Montana by Missoula north.

[Jaanders]

Just looking for some nice places to camp/fish/kayak between Missoula and Waterton. I have 5 days. Looking for camping that is not your usual RV campground. Also looking for some advice on where to fish some lakes and rivers. Never been to Montana so I really have no idea where to go. Would like to do a little flyfishing as well. Thanks for any advice I can get.

Sounds like the beginning of a great time. Try phoning one of the fly shops around your destination for that info as they would have been asked that many times before. May have some sort of arrangement with some of those businesses.

Great campgrounds and lake for Kokanee and trout. SW of Kalispell about 50 miles. Look it up on the internet

IF you go to Missoula via the so 5 toward Great Falls about halfway there is a small town Anaconda.

Great streams for fishing and the National forest has ample sites for camping. Just watch for the road signs indicating national forest not hard to find.

Thanks everyone. Is it easy to just find a campsite midweek or can a person reserve a spot. Great idea about calling local fly shops. Keep ideas coming....

Found a lake called Holland Lake. Anyone been there?Looks like a nice lake.
