Largemouth Bass
For largemouth bass anglers visiting Monon, Indiana, the focus should be on the many smaller lakes and ponds that dot the surrounding landscape. While not known for trophy bass, these waters offer consistent action and a chance to hone your skills. These lakes often feature classic bass habitat like lily pads, submerged vegetation, and flooded timber. Spring is the prime season, with bass moving shallow to spawn. Look for pre-spawn staging areas near deeper water just before the water temperature hits 60 degrees. Fall is also a productive time as bass feed aggressively before winter. A key local tip: many of these lakes have limited public access. Check local websites and resources for boat ramps and parking, and always respect private property. The bass in these smaller lakes tend to be opportunistic feeders, so spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and plastic worms are reliable choices. Don't overlook topwater lures early and late in the day for some exciting strikes.
