Spotted Bass
Spotted bass aren't as common in the immediate vicinity of Gem, Kansas, as they are in other parts of the country. However, dedicated anglers might find them in some of the smaller streams and rivers that eventually feed into larger reservoirs. These fish prefer clear, rocky streams with moderate current. Look for them around boulders, submerged logs, and riffles. Small crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and jigs are effective lures. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target spotted bass. Since they are not as prevalent, it is crucial to research local waterways and access points thoroughly. Contacting local bait shops or the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks can provide valuable information. Keep in mind that spotted bass may be misidentified as largemouth or smallmouth bass, so familiarize yourself with the key identification features.
