Largemouth Bass
For largemouth bass enthusiasts visiting Farmer, South Dakota, the smaller lakes and ponds scattered throughout the area offer promising fishing. While not trophy destinations, these waters can provide consistent action for anglers of all skill levels. Spring and fall are peak seasons, with pre-spawn (late spring) and post-spawn (early summer) periods being particularly productive. Look for weed beds, lily pads, and submerged timber, as these areas provide cover for bass. Topwater lures, spinnerbaits, and plastic worms are all effective choices. Many of these lakes and ponds have limited access, so be sure to scout out public access points or seek permission from landowners before fishing. A simple boat like a kayak or canoe can greatly expand your fishing options. Be mindful of the wind, as it can quickly pick up on the open prairie and make boating challenging.
