Largemouth Bass
If you're looking for Largemouth Bass near the Twin Cities, Scandia, Minnesota, provides some great options without venturing too far north. The St. Croix River Valley offers a mix of smaller lakes and river backwaters that hold decent populations. What makes Scandia unique is the opportunity to fish both riverine and lake environments, offering diverse fishing experiences. The best times to target largemouths are the late spring and early fall. During the spawn in late spring, focus on shallow, protected bays with vegetation. In the fall, bass will be actively feeding before winter. Flipping jigs and plastics around docks and weedlines is a productive method. A local tip: explore the backwaters and sloughs off the St. Croix River – these can be hotspots for bass, especially after periods of high water. Be mindful of river currents and boat traffic on the St. Croix. The bass in this region are generally healthy and provide good sport, though trophy-sized fish are less common than in more remote areas.
