Largemouth Bass
If you're chasing largemouth bass near Cogswell, North Dakota, focus your attention on the smaller lakes and sloughs dotting the landscape. These often-overlooked gems can hold surprisingly good populations of bass. Summer is the prime time, as the water warms up and the bass become more active. Look for areas with submerged vegetation, docks, or other structure. A local tactic is to use weedless lures, such as Texas-rigged worms or spinnerbaits, to navigate the thick vegetation. Early morning and late evening are typically the most productive times. Access to some of these lakes can be limited to walk-in access, so be prepared to do some exploring. While you might not find trophy-sized bass here, you can expect to catch plenty of fish in the 1-3 pound range. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain the health of the fishery. Check local regulations for any specific rules regarding bass fishing in the area.
