Largemouth Bass
If you're targeting largemouth bass near Fenton, Missouri, the Meramec River and its associated backwaters offer a diverse fishery. While the Meramec is a river system, many of the slower-moving sections and off-channel lakes hold good populations of largemouth. Spring and fall are typically the most productive times. In the spring, focus on shallow, weedy areas as bass move in to spawn. In the fall, target creek mouths and areas with abundant baitfish. Summer can also be productive, especially during early morning and late evening hours. Look for submerged structure, docks, and overhanging trees. Plastic worms, crankbaits, and spinnerbaits are all effective lures. Public access is available at several parks along the river, but boat ramps can get crowded, especially on weekends. A local tip: the Meramec can get muddy quickly after rain, so check the water clarity before you go and adjust your lure selection accordingly.
