Reel in the Biggest Bites: Bass Fishing Hotspots Across the US Revealed
About this Episode
Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, slingin' the latest on bass fishin' across the US. If you're a fly rod junkie like me, dreamin' of tradin' that feather for a jig on cold days, these bass tales might just hook ya. Let's dive into the fresh bites.
Start with a monster catch down in Texas. Outdoor Life reports 76-year-old Travis McCollough hit Lake Fork Phantom Hill on Feb 5 for some low-key practice. Water at 45 degrees, he crawled a green pumpkin jig slow along an 8-foot ledge. After two hours and a quick prayer, bam – a 14.35-pound largemouth that couldn't even jump, she was so beefy. New lake record, third Legacy class ShareLunker this season. Fought her 20 minutes, 25 inches long, football girth. Guy's fished 40 years, calls it a blessin'. Wired2Fish echoes he hadn't wet a line in three months – talk about divine drag screamer.
Hot spots are firin' up too. Outdoornews says hang your hat on Blackwater Lake near Longville, Minnesota – just 771 acres but packed with largemouth and smallmouth. High numbers, big sizes everywhere, per guide Will Neururer. Texas Parks and Wildlife weekly report from Feb 11 lights up Dunlap Lake: bass bite turned on, quality up to 7 pounds on soft plastics and crankbaits, spawn comin' soon. Limestone Lake's banks at Branch Marina, Dooley Creek, and Navasota River are gold for prespawn bed hunters. Choke Canyon Reservoir's shorelines givin' black bass if ramps are closed.
Tourney buzz is huge. Tennessee Tourism's backin' the 2026 Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Classic in Knoxville March 13-15, plus High School Nats on Kentucky Lake. TDTD calls it a world-class fishin' spot with 500,000 miles of water. Major League Fishing dropped the new Columbia PFG College Fishing Heavy Hitters Oct 25 on Douglas Lake, Tennessee – top 18 teams by biggest single bass all season. Big bite rewards, catch-weigh-release style.
B.A.S.S. is pushin' BassmastHER workshops nationwide, startin' Feb 14 at Lake Martin, Alabama – ladies and girls gettin' on-water skills and community.
Winter bass are huggin' ledges, jigs, and slow crawls like your streamer drifts. Grab the gear, chase these pigs.
Thanks for tunin' in, come back next week for more. This has been a Quiet Please production, and for me check out Quiet Please Dot A I.
