Largemouth Bass
While Maupin is renowned for its steelhead fishing on the Deschutes River, don't overlook the surprisingly good largemouth bass fishing in the area's smaller lakes and reservoirs. A short drive will get you to several productive bass waters, offering a change of pace from the river. The best time to target largemouth is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Look for them around weed beds, submerged timber, and rocky points. Early morning and late evening are prime times. A local tip: check water levels before you go, as some smaller reservoirs can fluctuate significantly. Also, consider using weedless lures, as vegetation can be dense. The bass in these waters often exhibit explosive strikes, making for exciting topwater action. Don't be surprised to catch some decent-sized fish, as the relatively short growing season can still produce some impressive specimens.
