Gordon Lake is a lake in Cascade County, Montana and covers about 6.63 acres.
Gordon Lake is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Across the deep side of a creek mouth, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
Around the clean side of a shallow saddle, 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.
Beside the shallow side of a patch of green weeds, 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.
Around the shaded side of the old channel, early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again.
Around the clean side of a protected bank, 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.
Beside the hard edge of a narrow arm, 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.
