Seasonal Activity Chart

Smallmouth Bass
Smallmouth bass fishing near Tigerton centers around the Embarrass River. This river, while known more for its walleye, also holds a healthy population of smallmouth, particularly in the rocky stretches and around submerged timber. The warm summer months are ideal for targeting smallies, as they become more active and aggressive. Try throwing topwater lures early in the morning or late in the evening for some exciting action. Crayfish imitations, either crankbaits or soft plastics, are also consistently productive. Access to the river is available at several bridge crossings and public access points along County Road M. Be aware that the river can get shallow in certain areas, so wading or a small boat or kayak might be necessary to reach the best fishing spots. Smallmouth in the Embarrass are known for their fighting spirit, so be prepared for a good battle!
