Hidden Lake in Flathead County is a lake in Montana.
Along the calm side of a short point, the recorded size of Hidden Lake is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish listed for Hidden Lake include Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout.
Around the inside edge of a small island, start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it.
Along the open side of an outside bend, 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.
Near the upper edge of an open-water break, 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.
Near the lower edge of a small island, 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.
