Largemouth Bass
Grant, Minnesota, offers some surprisingly good largemouth bass fishing in its many smaller lakes and connected waterways. What makes Grant unique is its blend of suburban development and preserved natural spaces, which provides varied bass habitat. You'll find everything from classic lily-pad-filled shallows to deeper, clearer water near drop-offs. The best time to target largemouth here is during the pre-spawn in late spring (May) and again in the fall (September-October) when the fish are actively feeding before winter. A key tactic is to focus on areas with submerged vegetation or near docks and boathouses. Many of the lakes lack public access, so a small boat or kayak is ideal. Be mindful of private property and respect the local community. A good starting point is the chain of lakes accessible from the Browns Creek State Trail, though you may need to carry your kayak or canoe a short distance.
