Largemouth Bass
Targeting largemouth bass around Maumee? The Maumee River itself and its connected waterways offer a diverse fishery. While the river is famous for its spring walleye run, the backwaters, sloughs, and ponds connected to the river provide excellent habitat for largemouth bass. The best time to fish for bass here is late spring through early fall. Look for areas with heavy vegetation, docks, and submerged timber. Plastic worms, crankbaits, and spinnerbaits are all effective lures. For a local tip, try fishing the areas around the Howard Marsh Metropark, where restored wetlands provide prime bass habitat. Also, pay attention to water levels in the river. Higher water can push bass into the flooded vegetation, offering unique fishing opportunities. The bass in this area are known for being aggressive, particularly during the warmer months. Be prepared for some exciting topwater action!
