Largemouth Bass
Targeting largemouth bass near Johnston, South Carolina means exploring the smaller lakes and ponds that are scattered throughout the region. Public access might be limited, so consider knocking on some doors and asking for permission to fish on private land; you might be surprised how welcoming folks can be. Spring and fall are the prime seasons for bass fishing here, as the fish are most active during these times. Focus on areas with structure, such as submerged timber, weed beds, and docks. A local tip: Carolina-rigged worms and crankbaits are consistently effective lures. The bass in these smaller bodies of water tend to be aggressive, but can also be pressured, so vary your presentation. Expect to find a good mix of sizes, with the potential for some real lunkers if you're willing to put in the time.
