Official stocking history

Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.

Haglund Reservoir #2 is a reservoir in Yellowstone County, Montana and covers about 2.39 acres.

Haglund Reservoir #2 is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.

Fish and Baits

Around the current seam of a small island, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

Near the soft edge of a quiet pocket, 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

Beside the sunny side of a firm-bottom hump, 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.

Season by Season

Along the soft edge of a gravel shelf, 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

Near the channel lip 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.

Beside the gravel lip of a shallow saddle, record the wind, water color, depth beside useful cover, 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.
