Burns Harbor, Indiana, while known for its industrial presence, surprisingly offers some decent Largemouth Bass fishing in the nearby inland lakes and ponds. These smaller bodies of water, often overlooked, can hold some surprisingly good bass. Spring and early summer are prime times, as bass move shallow to spawn. Look for them around submerged vegetation, docks, and any other available cover. Soft plastics like worms and creature baits, fished slowly around cover, are often effective. Topwater lures can also be productive during low-light conditions. A local tip: check out the smaller, less-pressured ponds that aren't directly accessible from major roads; these often hold larger, more wary fish. Access to these lakes may require some walking or a small boat. Bass in these waters tend to be well-fed, thanks to the abundant forage.
