Largemouth Bass
Simi Valley might be known for its suburban charm, but it also offers decent largemouth bass fishing in nearby reservoirs and lakes. Lake Bard, a short drive away, is a popular choice for bass anglers. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target bass, as they are more active during these periods. In the spring, focus on shallow water around spawning areas, using lures like spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and soft plastics. As the water warms in the summer, bass will move to deeper water, so try fishing with Carolina rigs or Texas rigs. A practical tip: Lake Bard can get crowded on weekends, so consider fishing during the week or early in the morning to avoid the crowds. The bass population is healthy, with a good mix of sizes, and you might even hook into a double-digit lunker. Be sure to check the current fishing regulations for Lake Bard before you go, as they can change.
