Spotted Bass
If you're hoping to hook into some spotted bass near Wimberley, Texas, the Blanco River is your primary target. While largemouth get more attention, the Blanco also holds a decent population of spotted bass, offering a fun challenge for anglers. Spring and fall are typically the best times to target spotted bass, as they are more active during these periods. Focus on areas with rocky structure, current breaks, and deeper pools. Small crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and soft plastics rigged on a Texas or Carolina rig can be effective. A local tip: spotted bass in the Blanco River tend to be smaller than largemouth, so downsize your tackle accordingly. Also, be prepared to fish in clear water conditions, which often requires using lighter line and more natural-colored lures. The spotted bass in this area are known for their aggressive strikes and willingness to fight, making them a rewarding target for anglers seeking a change of pace from largemouth fishing.
