Spotted Bass
While Largemouth Bass get a lot of attention, Arcadia Lake near Edmond, Kansas, also holds a population of Spotted Bass. These aggressive fighters often occupy similar habitats to Largemouth, but tend to favor slightly deeper water and areas with more current or rocky structure. Spring and fall are productive times, just like with Largemouth, but Spotted Bass often remain active during the hotter summer months when Largemouth become lethargic. Focus on areas with submerged rock piles, riprap along the dam, and points extending into the main lake. Smaller crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and jigs are effective lures. Local anglers often find success targeting them around the dam's spillway. Spotted Bass in Arcadia Lake may not reach trophy sizes, but they provide consistent action and a fun challenge for anglers of all skill levels.
