Fishing
While the Forest Service does not sell fishing licenses, a license is required to fish in both South Dakota and Wyoming. The state game departments and local retailers sell licenses.
Several species of game fish, including brown, brook, and rainbow trout, as well as northerns, perch, and crappies can be caught in the Black Hills. Visit our recreation page for a list of our lakes and reservoirs, or purchase a map to locate our many streams.
