Largemouth Bass
While Gearhart, Oregon, is better known for its coastal saltwater fishing, dedicated anglers can find Largemouth Bass in nearby freshwater lakes and sloughs. Focus your efforts on Cullaby Lake, just a short drive inland. This lake offers classic bass habitat with lily pads, submerged timber, and weed beds. Spring and early summer are prime times, as the bass move into the shallows to spawn. Target these areas with spinnerbaits, plastic worms, and topwater lures. Later in the summer, look for bass holding in deeper water near structure. A local tip: the north end of Cullaby Lake, accessible from the Cullaby Lake County Park, tends to hold more structure. Be aware that water levels can fluctuate, so check conditions before you go. The bass here aren't giants, but they provide a fun freshwater diversion from the coastal scene.
