: Chesterfield: Most the stillwater fishing in the area would be classified as Fair. The best stillwater fishing the last couple weeks has been at Hebgen. We are still hearing of some gulper fishing, but the indicator and slow sinking lines have been taking a fair amount of fish too. Smaller leeches and Callibaetis nymphs would be what I would start with. Folks are having decent fishing on Daniels, Chesterfield, and Springfield Reservoirs, but nothing crazy yet. I think all three are ready to open up and start fishing very well as soon as we get some colder weather. We have heard Chesterfield has a mild algae bloom, but it should totally dissipate as the weather starts to cool. When it does chironomids and leech patterns should be very effective in the shallows all around the lake Reported by: Jimmy's All Seasons Angler |

| About: -
Chesterfield Reservoir, is a popular spot for weekend camping and fishing trips. It has long
been a great place to catch sizable hatchery-bred rainbow trout. Fish exhibit
good growth rates at Chesterfield and anglers in boats on this 1600 acre (when
full) reservoir usually have little trouble catching rainbows. Bank fishing is
often good, but not as consistent as boat fishing. Special regulations and a two
trout limit apply to Chesterfield and there are no boat restrictions. Parking
and a boat ramp are available. Location: 14 miles N of Bancroft. |
