Spotted Bass
If you're chasing spotted bass in West Tennessee, Medina offers some under-the-radar opportunities. While not as famous as some other Tennessee fisheries, the smaller lakes and rivers around Medina hold healthy populations of these aggressive fighters. The Forked Deer River and its tributaries are prime areas to explore, especially during the spring and fall when the water temperatures are moderate. Look for rocky outcroppings, submerged timber, and bridge pilings – these are all classic spotted bass hangouts. A local tip: Pay attention to water clarity. After heavy rains, the river can get muddy, so having a selection of brightly colored lures or those with rattles can make a big difference. Bank access is limited in some areas, so consider using a kayak or small boat to reach the best spots. The spotted bass here are known for their tenacity, and you might even hook into a largemouth as well!
