Spotted Bass
Spotted bass, also known as Kentucky bass, are a popular target in the waterways around Ball, Louisiana. While largemouth get more attention, the spotted bass population is healthy, and they can provide consistent action. The Red River and its tributaries offer ideal habitat, with plenty of rocky structure and current. Unlike largemouth, spotted bass often prefer slightly deeper water and faster currents. Small crankbaits, jigs, and Carolina-rigged worms are effective lures. Focus your efforts around bridge pilings, rock piles, and channel edges. A local tip: Pay attention to water clarity. Spotted bass are more tolerant of clearer water than largemouth, so target areas where the visibility is good. The fall and winter months can be especially productive as the water cools and the spotted bass become more active. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and creel limits.
