Loon Lake is a lake in Montana, near Lake County.
Loon Lake in the north-central part of Lake County is a lake in Montana.
No reliable acreage is listed for Loon Lake, so begin with visible cover and the first clear change in depth.
Near the windward edge of a rocky point, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
Across the soft edge of a sand-to-rock change, 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.
Across the shallow side of a gravel shelf, 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.
Beside the shaded side of the first drop, shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.
Along 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 shallow corner of a sand-to-rock change, record the wind, water color, depth along the best drop, 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.
