Spotted Bass
Looking for some exciting spotted bass action in Louisiana? Head down to Thibodaux, where the bayous and canals offer prime habitat for these aggressive fish. Unlike their largemouth cousins, spotted bass here tend to school tightly, so finding one often means finding several. The best time to target them is during the spring spawning season (March-May) when they move into shallower waters. Fall can also be productive as they feed aggressively before winter. Focus your efforts around structure like cypress knees, submerged logs, and bridge pilings. A Texas-rigged worm or a small crankbait worked along the edges of these structures can be deadly. A local tip: many anglers launch kayaks from the public access point at the end of Canal Boulevard to explore the maze of waterways. Be mindful of the tides, as they can significantly impact water levels and fishing conditions in these interconnected bayous.
