Spotted Bass
For those seeking spotted bass in the Colbert, Georgia area, your best bet is to explore the rocky runs and shoals of the Broad River. This river system, while not known for trophy-sized spots, holds a healthy population of these aggressive fighters. Spring and fall are excellent times to target them, as the cooler water temperatures invigorate their feeding habits. Focus your efforts on areas with current breaks, such as rocks, downed trees, and bridge pilings. Small crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and jigs worked along the bottom are effective choices. A local tip: wade fishing can be productive in the Broad River, allowing you to access areas that are difficult to reach by boat. Be cautious of slippery rocks and fluctuating water levels. The spotted bass here tend to be scrappy and hard-fighting for their size, making for an enjoyable angling experience.
