Spotted Bass
If you're chasing Spotted Bass in Oklahoma, Ripley offers some underrated opportunities. The primary draw is likely the nearby Cushing Lake, a smaller reservoir known for its clear water and rocky structure, perfect for Spots. While not as abundant as Largemouth, the Spotted Bass here can be surprisingly feisty. Spring and fall are prime times, as the fish move shallow to spawn and feed before winter. Focus on rocky points, submerged timber, and any areas with current. A local tip: many anglers find success using crankbaits and jigs in crawfish patterns, mimicking the Spotted Bass's natural forage. Public access is available at the Cushing Lake dam, but be aware that water levels can fluctuate, impacting boat launching. Check conditions before you go. The Spots here tend to run smaller than Largemouth, typically in the 1-3 pound range, but their aggressive strikes make them a fun target.
