Smallmouth Bass
While not as abundant as largemouth or spotted bass, Smallmouth Bass can be found in the waters near Many, Louisiana, specifically in the clearer, cooler sections of the Sabine River above Toledo Bend. The key is to look for areas with rocky bottoms and faster currents – conditions that Smallmouth prefer. Spring and fall are your best bets, when water temperatures are moderate. These fish are often tucked behind boulders or near riffles, waiting to ambush prey. A lightweight spinning rod with small crankbaits or tube jigs is ideal. Consider using polarized sunglasses to spot fish in the clearer water. Accessing the Sabine can be tricky; some areas require wading or a small boat. Check local regulations regarding access and permits before heading out. While the Smallmouth here might not be trophy-sized, the challenge of finding them and the beauty of the river make for a rewarding experience.
