Black Hills Fishing Guide
A number of years ago the South Dakota Game Fish and Parks published a publication titled the Black Hills Fishing Guide. It has since gone out of print, but it now lives on in PDF format. The Black Hills Fishing Guide is an excellent resource, especially when used along with Steve Kinsella’s book, Trout Fishing in the Black Hills. The maps in the Black Hills Fishing Guide are decent, but often lack sufficient detail where roads and access are concerned. For better maps take a look at the USFS Black Hills Recreation Map and the excellent Trails Illustrated Maps from National Geographic.
