Keefer Pond 2 is a lake in Stillwater County, Montana and covers about 4.8 acres.
Keefer Pond 2 is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Fish and Baits
Near the lower edge of a creek mouth, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
Beside the deep side of a small island, 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
Around the firm edge of a firm-bottom flat, 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
Across the weed line of a weed bed, 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.
A Simple Tackle Plan
Near the sheltered edge of an outside bend, 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.
Near the clearer side of a creek mouth, record the wind, water color, lure depth that worked, 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.
