Largemouth Bass
While Rexburg isn't exactly known as a largemouth bass mecca, several smaller reservoirs and ponds in the surrounding area offer surprisingly good fishing. Consider exploring ponds near the Teton River or heading a bit further west towards the American Falls Reservoir – its backwater sloughs can hold some decent bass. The key is targeting weedy areas and structure, as these fish are often ambush predators in these environments. Spring and early summer, when the water warms up, are prime times, as the bass move into shallower areas to spawn. A local tip: focus your efforts on the western side of the American Falls Reservoir where the water tends to be warmer and weed growth is more prolific. Also, remember that water levels can fluctuate, so check conditions before you go.
