Largemouth Bass
Ellington, Missouri, nestled in the Ozarks, offers some excellent Largemouth Bass fishing opportunities. The Black River and nearby Clearwater Lake are popular choices. The Black River provides a classic riverine bass experience with rocky bluffs, submerged timber, and clear water. Clearwater Lake, a reservoir, offers a more diverse habitat with submerged timber, rocky points, and weed beds. Spring and fall are prime times for bass fishing in this area. During the spring, focus on shallow water near spawning areas. In the fall, target points and drop-offs as bass feed up for the winter. A local tip: use topwater lures early and late in the day for explosive strikes. For Clearwater Lake, the Highway K boat ramp provides good access. Largemouth bass in this region are generally healthy and aggressive, often hitting lures with force. Remember to check the Missouri Department of Conservation regulations for size and creel limits.
