Official stocking history

Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.

Sieler Dam is a reservoir in Fallon County, Montana and covers about 1.48 acres.

Sieler Dam is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.

Fish and Baits

Around the current seam of a shaded bank, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

Beside the darker edge of a protected bank, 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

Near the channel lip of a gravel shelf, 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

Across the clean side of a windblown shore, 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.

A Simple Tackle Plan

Near the clearer side of a rocky point, 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 shallow corner of a gravel shelf, 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.
