Largemouth Bass
Clear Lake near Lower Lake is a premier destination for Largemouth Bass fishing in California, and for good reason. The lake's abundant vegetation, tules, and submerged structure create ideal habitat for these fish to thrive. Spring is undoubtedly the peak season, as bass move into the shallows to spawn. However, good fishing can be found year-round. During the summer, focus on deeper water and shaded areas. In the fall, bass often move back into the shallows to feed on baitfish. A local tip: Learn to fish the tules effectively. Flipping and pitching jigs or soft plastics into the tules can be incredibly productive. Also, be aware that Clear Lake is a popular destination, so be prepared for crowds, especially on weekends. The largemouth bass in Clear Lake are known for their size and aggressive behavior, making it a must-visit destination for any serious bass angler. There are many boat ramps available around the lake.
