Largemouth Bass

Neodesha, Kansas, offers several options for largemouth bass anglers, with local lakes and farm ponds being the primary focus. These smaller waters often hold surprisingly large bass, and are less pressured than larger, more well-known lakes. Spring is undoubtedly the best time, as bass move shallow to spawn. However, summer evenings and early mornings can also be productive. During the heat of the day, focus on shaded areas and deeper water near structure. Plastic worms, crankbaits, and spinnerbaits are all effective lure choices. A local tip: don't overlook smaller, less-obvious ponds. Many are privately owned, so always seek permission before fishing. Also, be aware of potential vegetation growth in the summer, which can make fishing challenging but also provide excellent cover for bass.
