Slee Lake is a lake in Lincoln County, Montana.
Use the shape you can see at Slee Lake: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Beside the upper edge of a steep shoreline, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
Along the darker edge of an inlet turn, 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 lower edge of a channel turn, 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.
Across the outside edge of an open-water break, 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.
Near the upper edge of a firm-bottom hump, 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.
Beside the quiet end of a rocky point, record the wind, water color, depth where fish were holding, 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.
