My name is mike bruce i live in helena mt and i have been bass fishing for 3 years now. Was introduced to the sport through my father in law and I aboslutely love bass fishing. Recently am getting more serious into tournament fishing and now that i am done with football and school I can concetrate on fishing a lot more. Like to fish multiple species. From Alaska so i have done it all from river fishing to the ocean and now to lakes. Hope to learn more from this site and maybe find some more Montana bass fisherman.

Where do you fish for bass in Montana?

I've fly fished in MT, but not for bass.

@basseditor there are quite a few areas to bass fish in Montana. If your looking for large lakes there is Fort Peck in eastern montana that contains some giant smallmouth, walleye, pike, and a variety of other fish. Than there is Noxon Reservoir in western Montana that is loaded with smallmouth and largemouth. The current state record of 8.8 lbs came out of Noxon Reservoir and there is a video on youtube of a 7 lb. largemouth. Most of the rest of the bass fishing in the state are on small ponds/lakes. More large ponds/small lakes. There are probably over 20 different small bodies of water to largemouth and smallmouth fish. Where I live in Helena there is a decent little lake and even with the ice only half way off I got a 2.5-3 lb. largemouth to chase my jerkbait back to me. Fishing it super slow so it definitely looked at the bait a lot. Hopefully looking to catch one before march this year.

Welcome to the site, tons of great info here and these guys are always ready to answer any questions you have!!

Hey Mike..Welcome Aboard.....Stay Safe.....and Happy Fishing

Any suggestions for a bank bass fisherman out of Missoula? Noxon is the closest place that I know of. We do alright there, but it can take a while to locate bass and sometimes we don't. Thanks
