Smallmouth Bass
Smallmouth bass fishing near Nashotah offers some exciting opportunities, particularly in the clear waters of the Bark River and its flowages. While not a renowned destination, smaller lakes like Upper Nemahbin and Lower Nemahbin often hold good populations of smallies. Summer and early fall are ideal times to target them. Focus on rocky points, submerged timber, and areas with current. Crawfish imitations, tubes, and small crankbaits are all effective. A local tip: wading the Bark River can be productive, but be mindful of private property and access points. Look for deeper pools and areas with overhanging vegetation. While the smallmouth in this area might not reach trophy sizes, the fishery provides a challenging and rewarding experience. Be prepared for clear water conditions and adjust your presentations accordingly – lighter line and natural-looking baits can make a difference.
