Largemouth Bass
If you're looking for Largemouth Bass near Mentor, Minnesota, focus your attention on the numerous smaller lakes and ponds dotting the landscape. These often-overlooked waters can hold surprisingly good populations of bass. The best time to fish is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Look for shallow, weedy areas, lily pads, and submerged timber. Topwater lures, plastic worms, and jigs are all effective presentations. A local tip: The smaller, less-pressured lakes often produce bigger fish. Many of these lakes have limited or no public access, so be sure to obtain permission before fishing on private property. The bass in this region tend to be opportunistic feeders, so experiment with different lures and retrieves to find what they're keying on. Don't be afraid to try fishing during the evening hours, as bass often become more active at dusk.
