Montana Lake & Reservoir Fishing Report

This report is valid January 31 through mid-March.

It’s ice-fishing season, which we don’t do. That said, if it’s your jam, there is good fishing to be had on low-elevation area reservoirs until sometime in mid-March when the ice gets shaky (literally). Dailey Lake turns out bigger perch now than it does when we boat on it in May and June, which is annoying.

Note: We update our general fishing report far more often than our fishery-specific reports like this one, especially between November and April.
