Storey Ditch Boat Launch

Storey Ditch Boat Launch is a river fishing access point on Bureau of Land Management land in the Dillon Field Office of Montana. It sits on public land managed by the BLM, and it is not a reservable site, so anglers can plan on arriving and launching without a reservation. Summer is the most comfortable time to fish here. Typical averages from the nearby Ennis weather station show July highs around 83°F with lows near 45°F, and September still runs in the low 70s by day. Winter is cold, with January highs in the mid-30s and several snowy days each month from December through February. Bear Creek Campground and Bear Creek Cabin, both about 6 miles away, offer camping close by. The Indian Creek hike is roughly 6 miles off, and the Madison River at Varney Bridge, about 8 miles away, is another fishing option.
