Don't go, not worth the trip.
The fishing was really slow, between us brought home 50ish fish, usually that is easy in a day. Fishing was spotty at most, Friday evening caught 22, Saturday caught 5 for the day same on Sunday. Got lucky and got on a good bite Monday morning, then died around 10 and we packed up and left.
There were very few schools marked, when we marked a big school we didn't get many bites. Lots of the big schools were 8"-10" fish, probably could of caught them but whats the point. Lots of people were trolling those tiny fish schools though. The big fish we caught were 16-20" but not a lot of them. The cut throat were very active, trout all get released.
I talked to a lot of people who weren't catching fish.
I'd recommend Dworshak if you are looking to actually catch fish. Deadwood is probably going to be bad for the next few years.
