For largemouth bass anglers near Hayfield, Minnesota, the smaller lakes and reservoirs in Dodge County provide a decent opportunity for some local fishing. While you probably won't break any state records, these waters offer consistent action, especially if you focus on the right areas. Look for weed lines, docks, and other structure that bass use for cover. Early morning and late evening are prime times, particularly during the summer months. Plastic worms, jigs, and crankbaits are all effective lure choices. A local tip is to pay attention to water clarity. If the water is clear, try using natural-colored lures and lighter line. If the water is murky, opt for brighter colors and lures that create more vibration. Public access is available at some of the larger lakes, but be prepared for potentially limited parking and boat ramp facilities. Check local regulations for any size or creel limits.
