Largemouth Bass
Clifford, Michigan, might be a small town, but it's surrounded by excellent largemouth bass fishing opportunities in the numerous inland lakes and ponds dotted across the landscape. While specific lake names aren't mentioned, exploring the smaller, less pressured bodies of water often yields the best results. Summer is generally the peak season, with bass actively feeding in the warmer water. Early morning and late evening are particularly productive times. A great tip is to look for weed lines, docks, and submerged structure – these are bass magnets. Consider using weedless lures like Texas-rigged worms or spinnerbaits to navigate the vegetation. A small boat or kayak is ideal for accessing many of these smaller lakes. The largemouth bass in this region tend to be aggressive, and you might find some surprisingly large fish lurking in these secluded waters. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain the quality of the fishery for future anglers.
