Largemouth Bass
If you're looking for largemouth bass near Hazelwood, Missouri, you'll want to focus on the many smaller lakes and ponds scattered throughout the area and in nearby St. Louis County parks. While the Missouri River is nearby, it's not ideal largemouth habitat. Instead, explore places like Creve Coeur Lake, which offers decent shoreline access and boat ramps. Spring and fall are your best bets, as the bass are more active during these cooler periods. Focus on structure like submerged timber, weed lines, and rocky points. A local tip: many of the smaller, less-known ponds can hold surprisingly large bass, but access may require some walking. Try using weedless lures like Texas-rigged worms or spinnerbaits to navigate the heavy cover often found in these waters. Largemouth in this region tend to be relatively healthy and aggressive, but don't expect to find trophy-sized fish in every location; persistence and exploration are key.
