Fun Facts: Lake usage vs River usage
This fun fact comes from an April 2003 Park Service report that states:
"Based on current data available, approximately 9,600 boats and 459 PWC use Bighorn Lake each year. All motorboats, including personal watercraft, are required to purchase permits. During the peak month of July, up to 77 boats and 5 PWC may use the reservoir per day."
This is in stark contrast to the Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks report Montana Statewide Angling Pressure Survey, 2007 which reported that 107,514 anglers used the river.
