Largemouth Bass
If you're planning a largemouth bass trip to Garrison, Minnesota, you'll be focusing on the south end of Mille Lacs Lake and its surrounding smaller lakes. Mille Lacs itself can be a challenging but rewarding bass fishery, offering the chance at trophy-sized fish. Focus on the extensive weed beds and rock reefs that line the southern shore. Summer is prime time, particularly June and July, when the bass are actively feeding in the shallows. Flipping and pitching jigs into thick cover is a productive technique, as is throwing topwater lures in the early morning and late evening. A crucial piece of local knowledge: Mille Lacs can get rough quickly, so always check the weather forecast before heading out. The lake also has specific regulations regarding bass size and season, so be sure to familiarize yourself with them. The largemouth in Mille Lacs are known for their size and aggressive strikes. Also, don't overlook smaller lakes in the Garrison area, which often offer more consistent action and less pressure. These smaller lakes usually have public access points or resorts with boat launches.
