Spotted Bass
While Largemouth Bass often steal the spotlight, Colerain, NC, offers a chance to target Spotted Bass in the Cashie River system. These feisty bass prefer clearer, flowing water with rocky bottoms, making sections of the Cashie and its feeder creeks ideal habitat. Spring and fall are prime times to target them as water temperatures are moderate and the fish are actively feeding. Focus your efforts around submerged wood, rock piles, and any areas with current breaks. Spotted Bass in this region tend to be smaller than Largemouth, averaging 1-3 pounds, but they make up for it with their aggressive strikes. A Texas-rigged worm or a small crankbait worked along the bottom can be very effective. Access can be gained from several bridge crossings and informal access points along the Cashie River Canoe and Kayak Trail, but be respectful of private property. Local knowledge is key; ask at local tackle shops for recent reports.
