Just south of Columbus, Montana is a little town called Fishtail. Driving through, on the way to the Stillwater River, we stopped and fished Rosebud Creek.

Just past the Fishtail, Montana General Store is a road that leads to a fishing access for Rosebud Creek. There is a really nice campground and great trout water for wading.  The creek is lined with trees and takes a couple of sharp bends with good cut-aways; perfect for floating a dropper under an overhanging branch.

We caught a number of rainbows and browns in just a short time. The rainbows were about 10 inches and the browns a bit bigger. We took the rainbows on a hoppers and the brownie on a nymph dropper.

I would recommend the Rosebud.
