Vr 062 Reservoir is a reservoir in Valley County, Montana and covers about 0.63 acres.

On a water as small as Vr 062 Reservoir, one weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity.

Fish and Baits

Across the outer drop of a small island, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

Beside the inside edge of the old channel, 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 sunny side of a firm-bottom hump, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.

Season by Season

Around the current seam of a weed bed, shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.

A Simple Tackle Plan

Across the shallow side of a broad flat, 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.

Around the open side of a shallow saddle, 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.
