Spotted Bass
While Largemouth get most of the attention, Lewisville Lake also holds a solid population of Spotted Bass, offering a fun alternative for anglers. Spotted Bass tend to prefer clearer water and rockier habitat than Largemouth, so focus your efforts on the lower end of the lake near the dam and along rocky shorelines. They can be caught year-round, but the spring and fall months are particularly productive. A local tip is to use small crankbaits or jigs along rocky points and submerged humps. Also, don't overlook the riprap along the dam face; it's a consistent producer. Spotted Bass in Lewisville Lake are typically smaller than Largemouth, but they are aggressive fighters and can be found in good numbers. The lake's fluctuating water levels can concentrate fish, making them easier to target. Look for areas where the water clarity is best, as Spotted Bass are sight feeders.
