Largemouth Bass

Diamond City, Arkansas, gives you prime access to Bull Shoals Lake, a renowned destination for Largemouth Bass. This sprawling reservoir offers a diverse habitat, from clear, rocky bluffs to submerged timber and grassy flats. Spring and fall are the prime times to target largemouth here, as they move shallow to spawn and feed. During the summer, focus on deeper structure using Carolina rigs, deep-diving crankbaits, and Texas-rigged worms. A local's secret: Bull Shoals largemouth can be heavily pressured, so try using finesse techniques like drop-shotting or shaky heads, especially in clear water. The lake's largemouth population is known for its good size, with many fish exceeding five pounds. Numerous boat ramps and access points are available around the lake, but be aware that water levels can fluctuate depending on rainfall and power generation.
