Largemouth Bass
For largemouth bass fishing around Terra Alta, WV, you'll want to explore the area's smaller lakes and ponds. While there isn't a single large, well-known bass fishery nearby, several smaller impoundments hold decent populations. Check out local maps for public access points to these lesser-known waters. Spring and fall are the most productive times for bass fishing, as the fish are more active in cooler water temperatures. In the spring, target shallow, weedy areas with spinnerbaits or crankbaits as the bass are spawning. In the fall, focus on deeper structure with jigs or Carolina rigs as they prepare for winter. Because these are smaller bodies of water, stealth is key. Avoid making excessive noise and use lighter line to avoid spooking the fish. The bass in these ponds may not be trophy-sized, but they can provide a fun and challenging fishing experience in a beautiful mountain setting.
