Largemouth Bass
Largemouth bass fishing near Pringle, South Dakota, centers around smaller lakes and ponds nestled within the Black Hills region. These waters, though often clear and relatively small, can hold some surprisingly chunky bass. Focus on areas with good cover, such as submerged timber, weed beds, and rocky shorelines. Spring and early summer are prime times as the bass move shallow to spawn. Try using spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and soft plastics around structure. The clear water can make sight fishing a viable option, especially during the spawn. Fall can also be productive as bass feed heavily before winter. A local tip: be prepared for changing weather conditions in the Black Hills, and pack accordingly. Many of these lakes have limited access, so be prepared to hike a bit. Also, consider using polarized sunglasses to help you spot fish in the clear water.
