Largemouth Bass
If you're looking for Largemouth Bass in the Antigo, Wisconsin area, you're in luck. The region boasts numerous smaller lakes and flowages that hold healthy populations of bucketmouths. Spring, particularly late May and early June, is prime time as the bass move into the shallows to spawn. Try working the weed edges with spinnerbaits or soft plastics. As the water warms in summer, target deeper structure like submerged timber or drop-offs with crankbaits or jigs. Fall can also be productive as the bass feed heavily before winter; focus on areas with remaining green vegetation. A key local tip is to explore the many unnamed lakes and ponds accessible via public boat landings or carry-in access points – these often hold overlooked bass populations. Be aware that many of these waters are relatively shallow, so a shallow-draft boat or kayak can be a real advantage. The bass in these smaller waters tend to be aggressive, offering exciting topwater action during low-light conditions.
