Largemouth Bass
Frederick, South Dakota, offers classic Glacial Lakes region largemouth bass fishing. The area is dotted with numerous small lakes and sloughs, many of which hold surprisingly good populations of largemouth. Mina Lake State Recreation Area, just a short drive from Frederick, is a popular option with good access and boat ramps. However, exploring some of the smaller, less-pressured lakes can often yield better results. Focus your efforts during the spring spawn (late May-early June) and again in the fall as the water cools. Look for weed beds, docks, and any submerged structure. Topwater frogs and buzzbaits can be deadly in the summer months when fished around heavy vegetation. A local tip: don't be afraid to experiment with different lure retrieves, as the bass in these lakes can be finicky. Also, be aware that some lakes may have limited boat access, so a kayak or small boat can be advantageous.
