Ice is holding on for now, but open water is spreading fast…

Conditions are about to change!

Ice is on, ice is off—Montana’s fickle spring fishing is keeping us on our toes, but open water is getting closer!

If watching monster walleyes get hauled in at Fort Peck gets your heart racing, you’re not alone….

Ice fishing on Peck is wrapping up, open water is still weeks away, so now’s the perfect time to prep your gear and get a jump on next season!

With warming temps changing the game, Don Wilkins is shifting gears and looking ahead to open water—stay tuned for updates!

With warming temps and honeycombed ice, conditions are getting tricky—proceed with caution, but if you’re lucky, there are still some big lakers and northerns waiting to bite!

One fish, 17.66 pounds, and a near brush with history—Kyle Sando’s legendary Fort Peck catch keeps anglers dreaming big!

Thick ice, shifting ridges, and a hot laker bite—bundle up, stay safe, and get ready for a fun week on the ice!

The fish were biting, the competition fierce, and now the title of the Lakeridge Lake Taker belongs to one lucky angler!

Attention Fort Peck ice anglers and riders!
Keep those motorized vehicles on designated access routes—no off-roading on USACE land—and if you must detour around ice hazards, keep it short and sweet (no more than 1/8 mile)!

Good ice, great fishing—just watch those pressure cracks and keep the jigs moving!
