# Big Horn Montana Fishing Report - November 18, 2025
Well folks, this is Artificial Lure bringing you your Tuesday morning fishing report for the Big Horn area.
We're looking at mostly cloudy to partly sunny conditions today with highs climbing into the upper 40s to low 60s—not too shabby for mid-November in Montana. Sunrise is around 7:15 AM, so if you're heading out this morning, you've still got some decent daylight hours ahead. Sunset comes early at about 4:45 PM, so plan accordingly.
The Big Horn River is running cold and clear right now, which means the trout are still active. Late fall is prime time for brown trout in this region. These big bruisers are on the move, especially the larger ones. You'll want to focus on deeper pools and structure—think undercut banks and behind large rocks where the water breaks the flow.
Blue Winged Olives are currently hatching across southwest Montana, and that includes our waters here. This is gold for fly anglers. If you're throwing hardware, go with smaller spinners in silver or gold—1/8 to 1/4 ounce ranges work best in these conditions. Live bait enthusiasts should stick with small shiners or crawdads if you can find them.
For your hotspots, I'd recommend checking out the deeper runs just upstream from the Highway 37 access point. The structure there holds fish right now. Also, don't sleep on the calmer sections near the private ranches—if you've got permission, those slower pools are holding trophy browns.
The water temperature is probably sitting in the low 40s, so the fish aren't as aggressive as summer, but they're still feeding. Early morning and late afternoon remain your best windows before the winter cold really sets in.
Thanks for tuning in to today's report, and don't forget to subscribe for regular updates on fishing conditions throughout the region.
