Spotted Bass
Targeting Spotted Bass near Leesville, Louisiana, requires a slightly different approach than largemouth. While Toledo Bend Reservoir holds a healthy population, these bass tend to favor different habitats. Look for them around rocky points, deeper ledges, and submerged timber in the main lake and its tributaries. Unlike largemouth, spotted bass are more likely to be found in clearer water. Spring and fall are also prime times for spotted bass, as they follow similar forage patterns as largemouth. A proven tactic is using Carolina rigs or Texas rigs with crawfish imitations. A local tip is to focus on areas with current, even slight current, as spotted bass often position themselves to ambush prey in these locations. The spotted bass here are known to be aggressive fighters, so be ready for a good battle.
