Largemouth Bass
Targeting Largemouth Bass near Farmington, West Virginia? You'll want to focus your efforts on the Monongahela River and its connected tributaries. While the 'Mon' isn't known for trophy bass, it holds a healthy population of fish in the 1-4 pound range, perfect for a day of consistent action. Spring and fall are the most productive seasons, as the bass are actively feeding. During the summer months, target deeper structure and fish during the cooler parts of the day. Look for bass around docks, submerged timber, and rocky outcroppings. Spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and jigs are all effective lures. A local tip: The public access ramp at nearby Prickett's Fort State Park provides excellent access to the Monongahela River. Be mindful of barge traffic on the river, and always wear a life jacket. The bass in this section of the Monongahela are generally aggressive, making for exciting topwater action during the warmer months.
