Master New Hampshire's Bass Lakes Like a Pro

Ready to step up your bass game on New Hampshire's legendary lakes? This full-day advanced charter puts you right in the action, targeting trophy largemouth and smallmouth bass using cutting-edge techniques. Whether you're prepping for tournament season or just want to fish like the pros, our experienced guides will help you dial in your skills on some of the Granite State's most productive waters.

Trip Overview

We'll hit the water at the crack of dawn, around 7 AM, for a solid 8 hours of hardcore bass fishing. This isn't your average "cast and hope" trip - we're talking serious, technique-driven angling that'll challenge even seasoned bass hunters. You'll work a variety of rigs and presentations, from finesse drop shots to aggressive topwater walking baits, adapting to what the fish want on any given day. Our guides know these lakes like the back of their hand, so get ready to hit prime structure and cover that most weekend warriors never even know exist.

Techniques That Land Lunkers

Leave your old-school Texas rig at home (well, maybe bring one just in case). On this trip, we're diving deep into the tactics that consistently produce big bass in pressured waters. You'll master the subtleties of the ned rig, learning how to detect those whisper-soft bites that often lead to your personal best. We'll show you how to work a drop shot rig through deep structure, enticing those wary smallmouth that suspend off main lake points. When conditions are right, get ready for some heart-stopping topwater action as we walk the dog with big poppers and whopper ploppers. And don't worry if you're new to some of these techniques - our guides are passionate teachers who'll have you fishing like a pro in no time.

Why Serious Anglers Keep Coming Back

This isn't just another day on the water - it's a masterclass in modern bass fishing. Our clients rave about how much they learn, even after years of fishing experience. You'll gain insights into seasonal patterns, how to read your electronics like a pro, and tricks for triggering bites when the fish seem lockjawed. Plus, there's nothing quite like the rush of battling a chunky largemouth or acrobatic smallie on light tackle in crystal-clear water. Whether you're looking to up your tournament game or just want to fish the way the pros do on TV, this trip delivers the goods.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Largemouth Bass: The king of the lakes, New Hampshire's largemouth can grow to true trophy proportions. These ambush predators love to hang tight to cover, whether it's thick weed mats, fallen trees, or man-made structure. In the early season, you might find them cruising the shallows, perfect for sight fishing. As summer heats up, we'll target them around deeper weedlines and points. Fall can produce some of the biggest bass of the year as they feed heavily before winter. Expect hard strikes and powerful runs - these fish know how to use their environment to their advantage.

Smallmouth Bass: If largemouth are the heavyweights, smallmouth are the acrobats of the bass world. New Hampshire's clear, rocky lakes provide the perfect habitat for these bronze bruisers. They're often found relating to hard structure - rock piles, ledges, and gravel flats. Pound-for-pound, smallies fight harder than just about any freshwater fish, with sizzling runs and aerial displays that'll have your drag singing. In the spring, we target them in pre-spawn areas. Summer finds them out on main lake structure, while fall can produce some of the best numbers of the year as they school up to feed.

Time to Book Your Bass Bonanza

Look, if you're serious about upping your bass game, this is the trip you've been waiting for. Our guides aren't just fishermen - they're bass obsessives who live and breathe this stuff. You'll fish waters that have produced state record fish, using techniques that are proven to work when nothing else will. Plus, with only one angler per trip, you get 100% personalized instruction and attention. Just remember to bring your New Hampshire fishing license if you're 16 or older. We provide all the top-notch gear, but feel free to bring any special rods or lures you want to try out. Spots fill up fast, especially during prime seasons, so don't wait to lock in your date. Get ready to experience New Hampshire bass fishing at its absolute finest!

Learn more about the animals

Largemouth Bass

Largemouth bass are the heavyweights of New Hampshire's lakes, often reaching 3-6 pounds. Look for them in warmer, weedier areas, especially near drop-offs or submerged logs. These ambush predators have huge mouths (hence the name) and will eat just about anything that fits. Spring and early summer are fantastic, as the bass move shallow to spawn. Anglers love largies for their aggressive strikes and powerful fights. They're not the best eating fish, but they're a blast to catch and release. To improve your chances, focus on dawn and dusk when the big ones feed. Here's a local tip: in summer, try slow-rolling a big spinnerbait along weed edges. The flash and vibration can trigger strikes from lunkers hiding in the vegetation. Just be ready - when a big largemouth hits, it feels like you've hooked a submarine!

Largemouth Bass

Smallmouth Bass

Smallmouth bass are the scrappy fighters of New Hampshire's lakes. Typically 12-18 inches long, these bronze-colored battlers prefer cooler, clearer waters with rocky bottoms. You'll often find them around underwater structure like boulders or fallen trees. Spring and fall are prime times, as they move shallow to feed. Anglers love smallies for their acrobatic leaps and powerful runs when hooked. They're also tasty if you decide to keep a few for dinner. To up your odds, try fishing early mornings or late evenings with light tackle. A local secret: when the water's calm, toss a small topwater lure near rocky points. The strikes can be explosive! Just remember, these fish are smart - you'll need to mix up your approach to consistently land the big ones.
