Payola Reservoir is a great area to spend the day and relax. Montana, Fish, Wildlife & Parks stocks the reservoir with both large mouth bass and yellow perch. This BLM site has both fire pits and picnic tables under a cabana.
Getting there
Beginning at the intersection of Highways 200 and 87, travel east approximately 21 miles to Winnett. Once in Winnett turn north onto Cemetery Road and drive northwest for 8 miles. Follow the BLM signs to Payola Reservoir.
1991–2020 averages from the nearest NOAA station, 7.1 mi away — not measured at the facility itself, and elevation can make a real difference over that distance.
