Spotted Bass
If you're after spotted bass in Burnsville, Mississippi, focus your attention on the ledges and creek channels of Pickwick Lake, a reservoir on the Tennessee River. Spotted bass thrive in these rocky habitats, and Pickwick offers plenty of it. Spring and fall are the best times to target them, as they move shallower to feed. Look for areas with current, as spotted bass are ambush predators that like to sit and wait for prey to come to them. A Carolina rig with a lizard or a crankbait worked along the bottom are effective techniques. The boat ramp at JP Coleman State Park provides excellent access to prime spotted bass habitat. Be aware that Pickwick can get crowded on weekends, so plan accordingly. The spotted bass in Pickwick are known for their aggressive strikes and hard-fighting nature, making for an exciting fishing experience.
