Mill Creek Slough is a lake in Flathead County, Montana.
Mill Creek Slough is a lake in Flathead County, Montana and covers about 49.18 acres.
Mill Creek Slough can be broken down in a few passes: shallow cover, the first break, and the deepest useful water.
Fish listed for Mill Creek Slough include Lake Trout, Largescale Sucker, Longnose Sucker, Northern Pikeminnow, Peamouth Chub, and Yellow Perch.
Across the sunny side of a weed bed, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.
Along the clean side of a shaded bank, 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.
Beside the shaded side 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.
Beside the upper edge of the nearest cove, 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 firm edge of the nearest cove, record the wind, water color, depth where the bait 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.
