Smallmouth Bass
Smallmouth bass in the Sheboygan Falls area thrive in the rocky stretches of the Sheboygan River. This isn't a numbers game; it's about finding those pockets that hold quality fish. Focus on areas with current, boulders, and submerged wood. The river's relatively clear water allows for sight fishing in some areas, adding to the excitement. Late spring and early fall are generally considered the best times to target these bronze backs. In spring, look for pre-spawn fish holding in deeper pools near spawning areas. Fall sees them aggressively feeding before winter sets in. A local's secret: wading the river upstream from the Kohler Andrae State Park boundary can be productive, but be mindful of private property. Small crankbaits, tubes, and Ned rigs are all effective lure choices. The smallmouth here are known for their tenacity, so be prepared for a good fight.
