Spotted Bass
Targeting Spotted Bass around Jasper? Sam Rayburn Reservoir is your best bet. What makes this area special is the abundance of standing timber and creek channels that provide excellent habitat. Spring and fall are prime times, as the spots move shallow to spawn or chase shad. Focus on areas near the submerged timber with crankbaits or Carolina-rigged worms. Local tip: the Powell Park boat ramp offers good access to the mid-lake area. Spotted bass here tend to be a bit smaller than largemouth, so downsize your presentations accordingly. Pay attention to water clarity; spots prefer clearer water than largemouth. Don't be afraid to experiment with shad-imitation patterns.
