Largemouth Bass
Largemouth bass fishing near Bayfield may not be the first thing that comes to mind, but Vallecito Reservoir offers a unique high-altitude bass experience. While the growing season is shorter here, the bass can still reach impressive sizes. Focus on areas with submerged timber, rocky points, and weed beds. Early morning and late evening are prime times, especially during the warmer months. Spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and jigs are all effective lures. Don't be afraid to experiment with different colors and retrieves. A local tip: Pay attention to water temperature, as the bass can become sluggish in colder water. Slow down your presentation and use smaller lures during these times. The largemouth here tend to be a bit stockier than those found at lower elevations, a testament to the rich forage base in Vallecito. Be sure to check the regulations regarding size and bag limits before heading out.
