Branham Lakes is a lake in Madison County, Montana.
Use the shape you can see at Branham Lakes: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Fish listed for Branham Lakes include Brook Trout, and Rainbow Trout.
Around the channel lip of a broad flat, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
Around the rocky lip of a shallow saddle, do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself.
Along the steep side of a wooded bank, 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.
Around the open side of a sand-to-rock change, 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.
Across the deep corner of a deep bend, record the wind, water color, depth of the best pass, 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.
