Largemouth Bass
The Saxtons River area provides some under-the-radar largemouth bass fishing opportunities for anglers willing to explore. While the Saxtons River itself is better known for trout, nearby ponds and reservoirs hold populations of largemouth. Consider exploring smaller, unnamed ponds accessible via hiking trails. These often hold surprisingly large bass that see little fishing pressure. Spring and fall are peak seasons, with the pre-spawn period in late spring offering the chance to catch the biggest fish. Spinnerbaits and soft plastics are effective choices. A local tip: Look for lily pads and other vegetation along the shoreline, as these provide excellent cover for bass. Also, be aware that some of these smaller waters may have limited or no boat access, so be prepared to fish from shore. The largemouth in this region are generally healthy and aggressive, making for an exciting fishing experience.
