3. Fort Peck Lake

For epic fishing on Fort Peck Lake, your options are endless—after all, this lake has more miles of shoreline than the California coastline! Stop at the Lakeridge Lodge & Bait Shop or Fort Peck Marina to stock up and talk to local fishing guides.

Pro Tip: Fishing near the dam is known for northern pike, walleye, smallmouth bass, salmon, lake trout and a mix of other species. Anglers can also catch these species below the dam in the Missouri River, in Hell Creek—and in other areas of the lake.
