Spotted Bass
If you're chasing spotted bass in Plantersville, Texas, focus on the Navasota River and its tributaries. This area isn't as heavily fished as some of the larger reservoirs, which can give you an edge. The spotted bass here tend to congregate around submerged timber, rocky outcroppings, and deeper pools. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target them, as they become more active during these periods. A Texas-rigged worm or a crankbait that mimics local forage fish can be highly effective. Be aware of the river's water levels, as they can fluctuate significantly after heavy rains. Public access to the Navasota can be found at certain bridge crossings, but be prepared for some bank fishing. Consider using a kayak or canoe to explore more of the river. Spotted bass in the Navasota are known for their aggressive strikes, so hold on tight!
