Largemouth Bass
Largemouth bass anglers looking for a classic Tennessee experience should consider Hornbeak. Located near Reelfoot Lake, this area offers a unique and productive fishery. Reelfoot, formed by the New Madrid earthquake, is a shallow, stump-filled lake teeming with largemouths. Spring and fall are the peak seasons, with the spawn in the spring offering exceptional opportunities. Flipping and pitching jigs and soft plastics around the cypress trees and submerged timber is a go-to technique. Be prepared for a challenging environment; navigating the lake requires caution due to the numerous underwater hazards. The boat ramp at Reelfoot Lake State Park provides good access. Local tip: pay attention to the mayfly hatches in the spring; bass will often key in on these insects. The largemouth in Reelfoot are known for their aggressive strikes and can reach impressive sizes, making it a rewarding destination for bass anglers.
