Reservoir Number Four is a reservoir in Valley County, Montana.
The recorded size of Reservoir Number Four is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish and Baits
Around the open side of a shallow saddle, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
Across the darker edge of a broad flat, 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
Beside the darker edge of a small island, 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
Around the open side of a small bay, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.
A Simple Tackle Plan
Across the soft 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.
Along the gravel lip of an outside bend, record the wind, water color, depth that held fish, 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.
