Spotted Bass
While Lefors might be better known for largemouth, don't completely overlook the spotted bass potential in smaller impoundments like Lake McClellan. Though not as prevalent as largemouth, spotted bass can be found around rocky points, submerged timber, and riprap areas. Spring and fall are the most consistent times to target them, as they tend to be more active in cooler water. A great tactic is to fish a shaky head jig or a small crankbait along the bottom, paying close attention to any changes in structure. A local tip is to downsize your presentation, as the spotted bass in Lake McClellan can be finicky. They aren't going to be giants, expect fish in the 1-2 pound range. Access to Lake McClellan is through a public boat ramp, but be aware that it can get crowded, especially on weekends.
