Yellowstone Lake is a legit World Class Fishery! Located at 7,732 feet above sea level and 136 square miles, Yellowstone Lake is the largest freshwater lake above 7,000 feet in North America. It is sitting on top of Yellowstone’s magma chamber and is home to our Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout. This is their native habitat. They are healthy, beautiful and eager to eat a fly. This is a must do trip for any discerning angler and rivals any fishing I have experienced anywhere in the world! Call us to mark this must fish destination off your bucket list.

I moved to Jackson Hole in 1995 from Morganton, NC and began working with Westbank Anglers in 1996 as a shop employee. I worked at Westbank as a shop employee and guide until 1999 when I got a 'real job' and worked in a local bank and a short stint as a investment advisor. In 2002 I purchased Westbank Anglers and in 2004 Katie and I had our first child, Lucie, next came Mason in 2006 and Colter in 2010, the rest is history!
