BLM Paulo Reservoir sits on Bureau of Land Management land in northeastern Montana, open year-round and free to use. No designated sites exist here, which means the area fills quickly. Four rigs is about the practical limit before it gets crowded. Pets are not permitted. The reservoir provides direct water access for kayakers and paddleboarders, and campers looking for places to camp near BLM Land — Glasgow Field Office will find this one well off the usual routes. It suits self-contained, water-focused campers who don't need marked sites or hookups.
Description
Located approximately 12 miles southwest of Glasgow, Montana, Paulo Reservoir offers a quiet, remote setting for largemouth bass fishing and family outings. A windmill aeration system helps keep fish alive but can also cause areas of thin ice during the winter. Be cautious when recreating in the winter.
