Largemouth Bass

Largemouth bass fishing at White Mountain Lake can be very rewarding, especially if you time your visit right. This high-country lake offers a different experience than the desert impoundments further south. Focus on the spring and early summer months when the bass are actively spawning in the shallows. Look for them around submerged timber, docks, and weed beds. Plastic worms, jigs, and spinnerbaits are always productive. As the water warms in the summer, the bass will move deeper, so try fishing around drop-offs and submerged structure. The lake's fluctuating water levels can sometimes concentrate the fish in specific areas, so pay attention to current conditions. A good strategy is to launch from the main boat ramp and work your way around the lake, targeting likely bass holding areas. Remember to check the local regulations regarding size and bag limits before you start fishing.
