Largemouth Bass
Union, West Virginia, offers classic Appalachian largemouth bass fishing in its numerous small lakes and ponds. These waters, often tucked away in the rolling hills, provide a more intimate and scenic fishing experience than larger, more crowded reservoirs. The Greenbrier River, while known more for its trout, also holds some largemouth bass in its slower sections and backwaters. Spring and fall are the prime times to target largemouth here. During the spring spawn, focus on shallow, vegetated areas. In the fall, look for bass staging near deeper water as they prepare for winter. A local's secret is to fish the smaller, less-pressured ponds that require a bit of hiking to reach. These often hold some surprisingly large fish. Be aware that many of these ponds are on private land, so always obtain permission before fishing. The largemouth in this region are generally healthy and aggressive, making for some exciting topwater action during the warmer months.
