Spotted Bass
Centre, Alabama, offers excellent spotted bass fishing, primarily in Weiss Lake. This lake is a spotted bass haven due to its rocky structure, submerged timber, and fluctuating water levels. The best time to target these aggressive fish is during the spring and fall. In spring, focus on pre-spawn staging areas near creek channels and rocky points. Fall sees the spots schooling up, chasing baitfish in the main lake. A great spot to launch is at the Cherokee County Park; it provides good access to the lake's southern end. Locals often have success using crankbaits and swimbaits retrieved quickly through schooling areas. Remember that Weiss Lake spots are known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs, so be ready for a fun fight. Also, pay attention to water clarity, as spotted bass tend to prefer clearer water than largemouth.
