While White Bird, Idaho sits close to the Salmon River, Largemouth Bass anglers will need to focus on nearby reservoirs and ponds to find their quarry. These smaller, warmer waters provide the ideal habitat for largemouth. Spring and early summer, particularly during and after the spawn, are the most productive times. Focus your efforts around shallow, vegetated areas and submerged structure. Plastic worms, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits are all effective lures.
