Hey Lloyd, I don't know about that infomercial, but that 'pond' looks pretty much like a prairie pothole. You'll see ducks on small water like that, keep an eye on the weather, any decent Canadian front will push them down. You may not run into too many traditional crop fields, but lots of hay/wheat fields. I bet you'd see pheasant around water like that. If it's legal season and a legal hunting area, that kid wouldn't care for a second if you walked by with a shotgun and waived hi. If it's not restricted, that's also the kind of area you can idle along in a truck and shoot gophers, though the grass is high now and it's a bit warm.
It's been dry, a little bit of a fire type season going on in much of MT, the critters will also seek out the water. It may not look it, but there was some moose in the area that're probably still around. Don't worry too much about any compound types, mostly just good ole boys that will keep to themselves, don't hoot and holler in the bars about how the Colorado women could kick their arses. You could consider not washing your vehicles, after a rain or two and some dusty wind, you can't read company logos and out of state lic. plates, folks will be small town curious.
