Spotted Bass
Targeting spotted bass in the Tega Cay area means focusing your attention on Lake Wylie. While largemouth are more prevalent, spotted bass thrive in Wylie's deeper, clearer waters and rocky structure. Look for them near points, humps, and rocky bluffs, particularly in the lower end of the lake. Drop-shot rigs, Carolina rigs, and small crankbaits are all effective techniques. Spring and fall are prime times, as the water temperatures are moderate and the fish are actively feeding. A local tip: Pay attention to your electronics and look for areas with submerged rock piles or brush. The spotted bass in Lake Wylie tend to be smaller than the largemouth, but they are aggressive and fight hard. Focus on areas with less vegetation than where you'd typically find largemouth.
