If you're heading to Whitesville, West Virginia, for largemouth bass, you'll want to focus your efforts on the area's smaller lakes and ponds, as well as the slower sections of the Coal River and its tributaries. These waterways, often surrounded by dense forests, offer the perfect habitat for bass to thrive. Spring and fall are your prime times here. As the water warms in the spring, bass move into the shallows to spawn, making them more accessible. Fall sees them feeding aggressively before winter. A practical tip: many access points are unmarked and require a bit of scouting. Look for pull-offs along Route 16 near the river, or inquire locally about access to private ponds (always ask permission!). The bass in this region tend to be opportunistic feeders, so a variety of lures, from spinnerbaits to plastic worms, can be effective. Don't be afraid to experiment with different retrieves and presentations to find what the fish are keying on.
