Seasonal Activity Chart
Smallmouth Bass
If you're chasing smallmouth bass near New Holstein, Wisconsin, focus your efforts on the Mullet River. This river offers classic smallmouth habitat: rocky runs, riffles, and deeper pools where these fish like to ambush prey. Spring and fall are prime times. As the water warms in the spring, smallies move into shallower areas to spawn, making them more accessible. In the fall, they aggressively feed to prepare for winter. A canoe or kayak is ideal for navigating the river, allowing you to quietly access prime fishing spots. Wading is also an option in some areas, but be mindful of the current. Local tip: Focus on areas near submerged logs and rock piles. These structures provide cover and attract baitfish. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and bag limits before you head out.
