Spotted Bass
If you're looking for spotted bass near Galt, California, the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta offers a challenging but rewarding experience. While largemouth get most of the attention, spots thrive in the Delta's deeper, clearer channels and around rocky structure. Focus your efforts around bridge pilings, riprap along levees, and submerged rock piles. These fish tend to prefer slightly cooler water, so the fall and winter months can be particularly effective. Use techniques like drop-shotting with finesse worms or throwing small crankbaits and swimbaits. The spotted bass in the Delta are often found mixed in with largemouth, but targeting areas with more current and harder bottoms can increase your chances. Consider launching from a ramp further south in the Delta where the water clarity is better, as this can help with locating these fish. Remember to check the Delta's regulations regarding size and bag limits.
