Largemouth Bass
For largemouth bass anglers near Granville, West Virginia, the Monongahela River and its backwaters offer a variety of fishing opportunities. While the Mon isn't a classic bass fishery, the back channels, creeks, and slower-moving sections hold surprisingly good populations. Spring, particularly during the pre-spawn and spawn, is prime time. Look for bass in shallow, weedy areas and around submerged structure. Summer can also be productive, especially during early morning and late evening hours. For access, consider the various boat launches along the river, or explore the creek mouths that feed into the Mon. A key local tip is to use lures that mimic the river's forage, such as crawfish-imitating crankbaits or shad-patterned swimbaits. The largemouth bass in this area tend to be opportunistic feeders, so presentation is key. Be mindful of river conditions, as water levels can fluctuate, impacting fishing success. The Mon is often stained, so brighter colored lures can be more effective.
