Largemouth Bass
Fayetteville, Georgia, offers some excellent largemouth bass fishing, especially in its smaller lakes and reservoirs. Lake Horton is a popular choice, known for its relatively clear water and healthy bass population. You'll also find opportunities in smaller, less-pressured ponds scattered throughout the area – many are accessible from local parks. Spring and fall are prime times, as the bass move shallow to spawn or feed aggressively before winter. For success here, focus on structure. Largemouths around Fayetteville love submerged timber, docks, and rocky points. A Texas-rigged worm or crankbait worked slowly around these areas can be deadly. Also, pay attention to water clarity. In clearer water, downsize your line and use more natural-looking baits. Public access to Lake Horton is available via boat ramps, but arrive early on weekends as they can get crowded.
