Largemouth Bass, also called the Big Mouth Bass and the Bucket Mouth Bass, is not a dominant species in Lower Lake Manitou. Compared to the extremely high population of other game fish, the Largemouth Bass could be considered a rare catch unless you specifically fish for them. There are lots of back bays and weed beds that produce enough bass for you to have lots of fun for an afternoon but don't expect the numbers or the size that you get in southern reservoirs and don't plan your holiday around Largemouth Bass fishing. We still get some nice Largemouth up to 5 pounds and every year guests are catching more and more of them. We want you to come to Lower Manitou for the awesome Muskie, Smallmouth Bass and Lake Trout fishing and think of Largemouth Bass fishing as a fun sideline.
