Largemouth Bass
International Falls, Minnesota, bordering Canada, is a fantastic location for largemouth bass, particularly on the Rainy River and surrounding lakes. The Rainy River, with its back bays, sloughs, and abundant vegetation, offers ideal habitat. The best time for bass fishing here is from late spring through fall, after the water has warmed up. Look for largemouth in areas with lily pads, reeds, and submerged wood. Flipping jigs and Texas-rigged plastics into heavy cover is a proven technique. Topwater action can be explosive in the early morning and late evening. A local tip is to pay attention to water levels – fluctuating levels can concentrate fish. Also, be aware of border regulations if you're fishing near the Canadian side. Numerous boat launches provide access to the Rainy River, but some can be shallow, so larger boats should exercise caution. The largemouth here tend to be aggressive, so don't be afraid to use larger lures.
