Targeting Spotted Bass near Belle Glade requires adapting to the unique conditions of Lake Okeechobee's southern reaches. While not as common as largemouth, spots can be found around deeper structure and submerged vegetation, especially where there's current. Focus on areas where canals and cuts enter the lake, as these often hold cooler, oxygenated water. Spring and fall are prime times, as the spots move in and out of spawning areas. Try using smaller crankbaits and jigs that mimic the local forage. A key tip: pay close attention to water clarity. If the water is stained or muddy, opt for brighter colored lures and fish shallower. The Rim Canal offers accessible bank fishing in some spots, but a boat is highly recommended to explore the lake's vastness effectively. Remember that spotted bass prefer slightly cooler water than largemouth, so target areas with shade or deeper water during the hotter months.
