Swift Reservoir in Pondera County is a reservoir in Montana.
Without a dependable size figure for Swift Reservoir, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.
Fish listed for Swift Reservoir include Rainbow Trout.
Across the upper edge of an open-water break, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
Beside the darker edge of a flooded tree line, 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.
Around the sunny side of a broad flat, 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.
Around the outer drop of a windblown shore, 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.
Along the hard edge of a protected bank, record the wind, water color, depth of the best pass, 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.
