Gosh, HS ... I don't think there are any fish in the Tongue River. No point in going there!
If you're really set on going there, check out the Bear Lodge Resort, in Burgess Junction. Don't let the "Resort" part of the name throw you. It's pretty "rustic". The rooms are clean, there's a super restaurant, and it's convenient to the waters. The same people who own the Bear Lodge also own the Arrowhead Lodge and the Elk View Lodge. We've not stayed in either of them, but they are a bit newer, still close to the waters, and have restaurants in them. We always stay in the Bear Lodge, and have for years! The whole area is a throw back to early frontier days! I love it!!!! Get Ken Retlacs book, Fly Fishing Wyoming. It's all in there.
Watch out for moose.
Our experience fishing there has been on the North Fork of the Tongue (cutthroats) and the South Fork of the Tongue (brookies). Both have fairly easy access. The Tongue River, itself, is much harder to access.

Trouts don't live in ugly places.
A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.
Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.
