Largemouth Bass
Largemouth bass anglers fishing near Dover, Missouri, should set their sights on the numerous farm ponds and smaller lakes that dot the landscape. These often-overlooked waters can hold some impressive fish. Spring, during the pre-spawn and spawn, is a fantastic time to target these bass as they move into the shallows. Focus on areas with cover, such as submerged vegetation, fallen trees, or docks. Access can be tricky, as many of these ponds are privately owned. Always seek permission before fishing on private property. A local tip: try fishing a Texas-rigged worm or a jig around structure. The largemouth population in this area tends to be healthy, with a good number of fish in the 2-4 pound range. Don't overlook the power of a well-placed topwater lure during the early morning or late evening hours, especially in the warmer months.
