Fish species in Temple Pond

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.

Temple Pond is a lake in Wibaux County, Montana and covers about 2.42 acres.

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

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Temple Pond include Rainbow Trout.

Near the steep side of a quiet pocket, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.

How to Read the Water

Near the outer drop of a protected bank, 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.

Season by Season

Around the open side of the nearest cove, 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

Near the outside edge of a short point, 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.

Around the sunny side of a patch of green weeds, record the wind, water color, depth where the lure was hit, 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.
