B and H Reservoir is a reservoir in Valley County, Montana.

Use the shape you can see at B and H Reservoir: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.

Fish and Baits

Around the sunny side of an outside bend, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

Along the soft edge of a rocky point, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.

How to Read the Water

Near the calm side of a broad flat, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.

Season by Season

Around the lower edge of a quiet pocket, in spring, start with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.

A Simple Tackle Plan

Beside the narrow end of a shallow saddle, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.

Along the hard edge of a creek mouth, record the wind, water color, depth along the active edge, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
