Largemouth Bass
New Johnsonville, Tennessee, is a prime location for largemouth bass fishing, thanks to its proximity to Kentucky Lake and the Tennessee River. This area offers diverse habitat, including submerged timber, weed beds, and rocky shorelines, all ideal for largemouth. Spring and fall are peak seasons, with the pre-spawn and post-spawn periods being particularly productive. A local tip is to focus on the backwater sloughs and creeks off the main river channel, especially after a period of stable water levels. These areas often hold warmer water and attract baitfish, drawing in the largemouth. Carolina-rigged worms and crankbaits are local favorites. Largemouth in this region are known for their aggressive strikes and can reach impressive sizes, making for an exciting fishing experience. Be sure to check local regulations regarding size and creel limits.
