Spotted Bass
While not as abundant as largemouth bass, spotted bass can be found in some of the waterways near Timken, Kansas. These aggressive fish often inhabit areas with rocky structure and clearer water. Focus your efforts on the Arkansas River or smaller creeks with similar habitat. Spring and fall are the best times to target spotted bass, as they tend to be more active during these periods. Small crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and plastic worms are all effective lures. Look for areas with current breaks and submerged rocks. Access to some of these areas may require a boat or kayak. Be mindful of water levels and currents, especially in the Arkansas River. A light to medium-action rod and reel combo is ideal for targeting spotted bass in this area.
