Largemouth Bass
If you're looking for Largemouth Bass in the Parshall, North Dakota area, Lake Sakakawea is your prime destination. This massive reservoir offers diverse habitat, from rocky shorelines and submerged timber to weedy bays that hold good numbers of bass. The best time to target largemouth here is from late spring through early fall. As the water warms up in May and June, the bass move into shallower water to spawn, making them accessible to anglers using a variety of techniques. Topwater lures, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits work well around structure. Later in the summer and early fall, target deeper water with Carolina rigs and jigs. A local tip: Pay attention to water clarity. If the water is clear, use natural-colored lures; if it's stained, opt for brighter colors. Also, be aware that Lake Sakakawea can be windy, so check the forecast before heading out. The bass here can grow to impressive sizes, with fish over 5 pounds not uncommon.
