Stillwater Point Reservoir

Where it is

Stillwater Point Reservoir sits in Churchill County, Nevada, covering about 1,851 acres. Season and conditions decide the productive water; the map is the starting point.

Seasonal pattern

Spring. Warming water pulls largemouth toward shallow, protected areas where they stage and spawn; the quickest-warming pockets lead.

Summer. Heat pushes fish off the shallows toward depth and shade; work the cooler ends of the day.

Fall. As water cools, forage and bass return toward shallower water; movement is wide, so covering water pays.

Winter. Cold water settles fish deep and slow; patience and a subtle presentation are the more dependable choice.

Key structure

• Creek and cove mouths that funnel fish and bait
• Weed edges and the clean lines along them
• Inside turns where a bank changes angle
• Submerged wood, brush, and laydown cover

The calendar decides which of these is worth time on a given day.
