Largemouth Bass
If you're chasing largemouth bass near New Albany, Ohio, focus on the numerous small lakes, ponds, and reservoirs that dot the landscape. While the Big Walnut Creek offers some shoreline fishing, the real hotspots are the smaller, less pressured bodies of water. Spring (pre-spawn) and fall are prime times, as the bass are actively feeding. Look for areas with submerged vegetation, docks, and fallen timber. A Texas-rigged worm or a crankbait worked along these structures can be deadly. Public access can be tricky; many ponds are on private property, so always respect posted signs. Hoover Reservoir, a short drive west, offers more extensive public access and a larger bass population, but expect more competition from other anglers. Local tip: Pay attention to water clarity. If the water is clear, downsize your baits and use fluorocarbon leaders.
