Largemouth Bass
Just a short drive east of the Twin Cities, Oak Park Heights provides excellent access to the St. Croix River and nearby lakes, offering prime largemouth bass fishing. The St. Croix, with its abundant backwaters, weed beds, and woody structure, is a haven for bass. Target these areas with spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and soft plastics. The best time to fish for largemouth in this area is during the pre-spawn (late spring) and fall when bass are actively feeding. Look for bass staging near spawning areas in the spring or ambushing prey near weedlines in the fall. Public boat launches are available along the St. Croix River, but can get busy, especially on weekends. Be mindful of current and boat traffic, particularly in the main channel. The largemouth bass in the St. Croix are known for their aggressive strikes and strong fights, making for an exciting angling experience.
