Montana Lake & Reservoir Fishing Report

This report is valid November 1 through late December.

Best to avoid the lakes for the next six weeks. It’s duck season, so there are hunters out on many, and the lakes will be awfully cold for the trout to be active, anyway. Wait until the ice is fit for walking on to get back after it.

Note: We update our general fishing report far more often than our fishery-specific reports like this one, especially in the winter.
