Montana Fish Report

Cold Creek Reservoir is at ~ 75% of capacity, with last year’s outlet reconstruction allowing more water to be held in the reservoir. Water temperatures are in the mid-60s. Trout fishing is best first thing in the morning or early evening.  Largemouth bass should be active throughout the day. The Largemouth bass population at Cold Creek Reservoir is small and recovering from recent reservoir drawdowns. Although harvest is still allowed, anglers are encouraged to catch and release bass caught until their population is well established in the lake.
