Spotted Bass

Various

Central Pacolet offers some surprisingly good Spotted Bass fishing, especially in the creeks and rivers that feed into the larger lakes. These fish thrive in rocky, flowing waters, so focus your efforts on areas with boulders, riffles, and deeper pools. The Broad River and its tributaries are excellent places to start. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target Spots, as they become more active with the cooler water temperatures. Small crankbaits, jigs, and soft plastics rigged on a Carolina rig are all effective. Spots in this area tend to be smaller than largemouth, but they fight hard, especially in the current. A key to success is finding areas with good water clarity, as Spotted Bass are sight feeders. A local access point is the bridge crossing on Highway 150 over the Pacolet River, providing easy bank access and wading opportunities.
