Smallmouth Bass
If you're looking for smallmouth bass near Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin, the lower Fox River and the waters of Green Bay offer some excellent opportunities. These smallmouth are known for their fight and can be found in good numbers, especially around rocky structures and current breaks. The best time to target smallmouth here is during the late spring and early fall, when the water temperatures are moderate. Focus on areas with rocky shorelines, bridge pilings, and submerged structure. The mouth of the Fox River where it enters Green Bay can be particularly productive. A key to success in Ashwaubenon is to pay attention to the current. Smallmouth often hold in areas where they can ambush prey, so target eddies and slack water near current seams. Consider using tube baits, crankbaits, or drop-shot rigs to entice these fish. Also, be prepared for some wind, as Green Bay can get choppy, impacting boat control and fishing conditions.
