Largemouth Bass
If you're looking for largemouth bass near Lexington, Missouri, the Missouri River and its backwater sloughs offer some excellent opportunities. While the river itself can be challenging, the calmer waters of the sloughs and oxbow lakes hold good numbers of bass. Focus your efforts around submerged timber, weed beds, and rocky points, especially during the spring and fall. The pre-spawn period in early spring (late March-April) can be particularly productive as bass move into the shallows to feed. Summer can be tougher, so fish early mornings or late evenings. A local tip: the Lexington Conservation Area provides good access to the river and some of its backwaters. Be sure to check water levels and river conditions before you head out, as flooding can impact fishing. The largemouth in this area tend to be opportunistic feeders, so crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and plastic worms can all be effective.
