Spotted Bass
Targeting Spotted Bass near La Plata? You'll want to focus your efforts on the tidal freshwater portions of the Potomac River and its tributaries in Charles County. Unlike their largemouth cousins, Spotted Bass thrive in areas with current and rocky structure. Mattawoman Creek, Nanjemoy Creek, and Chicamuxen Creek are all worth exploring. Spring and fall are prime times, as the fish become more active with the moderate temperatures. Look for them near submerged timber, bridge pilings, and rocky points. A key local tip: Pay attention to the tides! Spotted Bass often feed aggressively during periods of moving water. A Carolina-rigged lizard or a crankbait that mimics local forage fish can be highly effective. Remember to check the Maryland DNR website for any specific regulations or advisories for the area.
