Rehal Flat is a lake in Liberty County, Montana.
Use the shape you can see at Rehal Flat: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Along the quiet end 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 clean side of a flooded tree line, 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.
Around the soft edge of a deep bend, 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.
Along the outside edge of a sand-to-rock change, 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.
Along the deep corner of a small bay, 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.
Along the lower edge of the old channel, record the wind, water color, depth of the working lure, 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.
