Spotted Bass
If you're after spotted bass near Menifee, California, Diamond Valley Lake and Lake Skinner are your best bets. These reservoirs offer ideal habitat for spotted bass, with plenty of rocky structure and deep water. Spring and fall are peak seasons, with the fish being most active during these times. Look for spotted bass around rocky points, ledges, and submerged timber. They often hold in deeper water than largemouth, so focus your efforts accordingly. A practical tip for targeting spotted bass in these lakes is to use your electronics to locate submerged structure. Down imaging and side scanning sonar can be invaluable for finding areas where the fish are holding. Also, spotted bass are notorious for being finicky, so experiment with different lures and presentations. Finesse techniques, such as drop-shotting and shaky heads, often work well. The spotted bass in this area tend to be smaller than the largemouth, but they are known for their aggressive strikes and strong fights.
