Spotted Bass
Although less abundant than largemouth, spotted bass can be found in Marion Reservoir near Peabody, Kansas. These feisty fish prefer rocky habitats and clearer water, so focus your efforts around riprap, submerged timber, and rocky points. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target them, as they become more active with the changing water temperatures. A local tip is to use finesse techniques, such as drop-shotting or using small crankbaits, as spotted bass can be more finicky than largemouth. Look for them in areas where the water is a bit clearer than other parts of the reservoir. Access to Marion Reservoir is easy with multiple boat ramps and public access points. Spotted bass in Marion Reservoir typically range from 1 to 2 pounds, offering a fun challenge for anglers looking to diversify their catch. Consider areas near Hillsboro Cove for potentially clearer water and rocky structure.
