Frog Lakes is a lake in Lake County, Montana.

The recorded size of Frog Lakes is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.

Fish and Baits

Around the inside edge of a main-lake point, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

Across the inside edge of a main-lake 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

Along the firm edge of a flooded tree line, 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

Across the windward edge of a channel turn, 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 weed line of a steep shoreline, 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.

Around the upper edge of a small island, record the wind, water color, depth where fish were holding, 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.
