Largemouth Bass
While Cascade Locks, Oregon, is renowned for its salmon and steelhead fishing, the area also offers opportunities to target largemouth bass. The backwaters and sloughs off the Columbia River, particularly around areas with submerged vegetation and woody debris, can hold some surprisingly good bass fishing. The warmer months, from late spring through summer, are generally the most productive. Focus your efforts on areas with less current, as the bass tend to congregate in these calmer waters. Try fishing with soft plastics like worms or creature baits, or throw topwater lures early in the morning or late in the evening for some explosive strikes. A boat or kayak is highly recommended for accessing the best bass habitat in this area. Be aware of the strong currents in the Columbia River itself, and exercise caution when navigating the backwaters. The bass in this area are known for being opportunistic feeders, so experiment with different presentations to find what works best on a given day.
