Largemouth Bass
While Tillamook isn't the first place that comes to mind for largemouth bass fishing in Oregon, a few smaller lakes and sloughs offer surprisingly good action. These are often overlooked, providing a more secluded fishing experience. Focus your efforts on bodies of water like Cape Meares Lake or some of the backwater sloughs off the Kilchis River. Spring and early summer are prime times, as the bass move into shallower waters to spawn. Look for submerged vegetation and structure where they like to hide. A local tip: water levels can fluctuate significantly depending on rainfall, so check conditions before you go. Also, be aware that access to some of these areas may be limited to small boats or require a bit of a hike. The bass here aren't huge, but the chance to catch them in a beautiful, less-pressured environment is worth the trip.
