Spotted Bass
While Kansas isn't typically known as a spotted bass hotspot, Seneca offers a few opportunities to target these feisty fish. The best bet is to focus on reservoirs within driving distance. These reservoirs often have rocky shorelines and submerged timber which provide ideal habitat for spotted bass. Spring and fall are the most productive times, as spotted bass tend to be more active in cooler water temperatures. Look for them near rocky points, submerged brush piles, and around dam faces. A Carolina rig with a plastic lizard or a small crankbait are effective lures. Spotted bass in Kansas generally don't reach the size of largemouth, but they're aggressive fighters. Remember to check the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks regulations for specific creel and size limits. Targeting spotted bass in Kansas requires a bit of searching and experimentation, but the reward is a unique angling experience.
