About Stillwater River
As a river in Montana, United States, Stillwater River fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at Stillwater River pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques
- For Rainbow trout
Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.
- For Northern pike
Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.
- For Northern pikeminnow
Focus on areas with structure like submerged trees or rock piles, as Northern pikeminnow often ambush prey from these locations; vary your retrieve until you find what triggers a strike.
