Blacks Sawmill Pond is a lake in Rosebud County, Montana and covers about 1.01 acres.
The small size of Blacks Sawmill Pond makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Blacks Sawmill Pond include Fathead Minnow, and Rainbow Trout.
Near the sheltered edge of an inlet turn, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
How to Read the Water
Beside the current seam of an outside bend, make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
Season by Season
Along the first edge of the first drop, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.
A Simple Tackle Plan
Along the steep side of a wooded bank, a light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control.
Along the lower edge of a channel turn, record the wind, water color, depth that held fish, 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.
