Ouzel Lake is a lake in Carbon County, Montana.
No reliable acreage is listed for Ouzel Lake, so begin with visible cover and the first clear change in depth.
Fish listed for Ouzel Lake include Brook Trout.
Around the gravel lip of a shallow saddle, 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.
Near the channel lip of a shallow saddle, 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.
Near the sheltered edge of a narrow arm, 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.
Across the darker edge of the old channel, record the wind, water color, depth where fish bit, 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.
