Smallmouth Bass: These bronzebacks are the scrappy fighters of Maine's lakes. They love rocky areas and will put up a fight that'll have your rod bent double. Smallies in our waters can grow up to 5 pounds or more, and they're known for their acrobatic leaps and powerful runs. Spring and early summer are prime times to target these feisty fish, but they'll bite year-round if you know where to look.
Largemouth Bass: The bucketmouths in our lakes can grow to impressive sizes, with some topping 8 pounds. These ambush predators love to hang out near structure like fallen trees or weed edges. They're less likely to jump than their smallmouth cousins, but they'll use their bulk to dive deep and test your drag. Summer is the peak season for largemouth, but we catch them from ice-out to late fall.

Largemouth bass are the big dogs of Maine's lakes, usually 2-5 pounds but can top 10. Look for them around weeds, fallen trees, and docks in warmer, shallower water. They're most active in spring and fall, but you can catch 'em year-round if you know where to look. Anglers love largemouth for their aggressive strikes and powerful fights. They'll hit just about anything that moves - from plastic worms to topwater lures. In summer, try fishing early morning or evening when they're feeding. One local tip: work a weedless frog lure slowly across lily pads. When a bass blows up on it, wait a second before setting the hook. It's an exciting way to fish and can land you some real lunkers. Whether you're after a trophy or just want to have fun, largemouth bass fishing in Maine is hard to beat.
Smallmouth bass are feisty fighters that typically run 12-18 inches and 2-4 pounds. You'll find them in clear, rocky areas of lakes and rivers. They love cool water, so they go deep in summer heat. Spring and fall are prime times when they're in shallower spots. Anglers love smallies for their acrobatic leaps and strong pulls. They're also great eating fish with firm, white meat. To catch 'em, try crawfish-colored jigs or tubes bounced along the bottom. When the water's warm, focus on points and drop-offs near deep water. One local trick: on sunny days, cast parallel to shady shorelines where smallies ambush prey. Whether you're a beginner or pro, hooking into a smallmouth is always a blast.
