Largemouth Bass
South Amherst may be a smaller town, but it’s close to some productive largemouth bass fishing. Focus your efforts on nearby reservoirs and smaller lakes, such as Findley State Park Lake, which offers a classic bass fishing experience. The best time to target largemouth here is during the spring spawning season (late April-May) when they move into the shallows to nest. Topwater lures and soft plastics worked slowly around cover can be deadly. Summer can also be good, especially during early morning and late evening hours. As the water cools in the fall, bass will actively feed to prepare for winter. A local tip: Findley Lake can get crowded, especially on weekends. Consider fishing during the week for less pressure. Also, pay attention to the lake's weed growth, as bass often congregate around these areas. The largemouth in this area tend to average in size, but patient anglers can find some quality fish.
