Spotted Bass
Spotted bass, though often overshadowed by their largemouth cousins, offer a fun fishing experience around Robstown, Texas, specifically in Lake Corpus Christi. These fish tend to prefer clearer water and rocky or gravelly areas, so target points, humps, and creek channels with these characteristics. Smaller crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and Texas-rigged worms are effective lures. Spring and fall are good times to target spotted bass, as they are more active during these periods. A local tip is to downsize your presentation; spotted bass often respond better to smaller lures and lighter line. While they may not reach the size of largemouth, spotted bass are aggressive fighters pound for pound. Access to the lake is readily available through public boat ramps. Look for areas where the Nueces River channel enters the lake for prime spotted bass habitat.
