Spotted Bass
While largemouth bass get most of the attention around Fayetteville, Texas, you can also find spotted bass in some of the creeks and smaller rivers that feed into the larger reservoirs. These fish tend to prefer clearer, cooler water and can often be found around rocky structure and submerged timber. Look for them in areas with current. Spring and fall are again your best bets, with similar lure presentations to largemouth working well. However, downsizing your bait can sometimes be key to enticing a bite from these often-wary fish. For access, try exploring the public access points along the Colorado River. Be aware that water levels can fluctuate, so check conditions before heading out. Local tip: A Carolina rig with a small worm or lizard can be deadly when fished slowly along the bottom.
