14-acre lake in Park County, Montana. The lake tops out around 20 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
On the chart, Long Lake (Park) draws 17 acres inside 1.1 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.9) — enough points and pockets to pattern. 88% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 0.4 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. You'll find it in Park County. The nearest mapped water is Round Lake, 1 mi to the southeast.
In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 2 to 15 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 6 to 20 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 20 ft, rated prime for summer brook trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (10 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 6 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (20 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (10 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |

Come spring, look for cutthroat trout tight to the bank in 3 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 6 to 20 ft, then a winter hold in 5 to 20 ft. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 18 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A trolled spoon (small) or an inline spinner is the honest summer answer here.
