What to Expect on the Water

We kick things off bright and early at 7 AM, giving us prime time on the lake when the bass are most active. This half-day trip is perfect for solo anglers, couples, or a small group of buddies (up to 3 total). You'll be fishing from our fully-equipped 2025 Bass Tracker Pro - a sweet ride that'll get us to all the honey holes. I'll tailor my guidance to match your experience, whether you're looking to learn the basics or want to fine-tune your technique. The trip runs $400 for one angler, $550 for two, and we can add a third for $150 more. All the gear you need is provided, so just bring some comfortable clothes and your enthusiasm - we've got the rest covered.

Techniques That Land Lunkers

We'll be using proven tactics to target both largemouth and smallmouth bass. Depending on the conditions, we might start with some topwater action, throwing buzzbaits or poppers around lily pads and shoreline structure. As the sun climbs, we'll switch it up with some finesse fishing - drop shotting or wacky rigging soft plastics to coax those deeper fish. If the smallies are fired up, we'll hit some rocky points with crankbaits or jerkbaits. I'm always watching what the fish prefer, so we can adjust on the fly to keep the rods bent. Don't worry if you're new to these techniques - I'll walk you through each one, and you'll be a pro by the end of the trip.

Target Species Breakdown

Largemouth Bass: These bucket-mouths are the heavyweight champs of New Hampshire lakes. They love to hang out in weedy areas, around submerged logs, and near docks. In the summer, you can often find them in 5-15 feet of water, but they'll move shallower in the mornings and evenings. Largemouth in NH can grow up to 8 pounds or more, with the state record sitting at a whopping 10 pounds, 8 ounces. They're known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs, making them a favorite among anglers. The best time to target them is from late spring through early fall when they're most active.

Smallmouth Bass: Often called "brown bass" or "bronzebacks," smallmouth are the scrappy fighters of the bass world. They prefer cooler, clearer water and are often found around rocky structure or gravel bottoms. NH smallies typically range from 1-4 pounds, but don't be surprised if we hook into a 5+ pounder - they're out there! These fish are known for their acrobatic jumps and hard-fighting nature, often putting on a better show than their largemouth cousins. Spring and fall are prime times for smallmouth, but we can catch them all summer long, especially if we target deeper water during the heat of the day.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

New Hampshire's lakes offer some of the best bass fishing in New England, and it's not just about the size of the fish. The scenery here is second to none - imagine casting your line with a backdrop of rolling hills and pristine forests. Each lake has its own character, from the crystal-clear waters of Squam to the sprawling bays of Winnipesaukee. And let's not forget the peace and quiet - even on busy summer days, we can usually find a secluded cove all to ourselves. Plus, the diversity of the fishing keeps things exciting. One minute you're finessing a big largemouth out of the weeds, the next you're battling a hard-charging smallie in open water. It's this mix of natural beauty and quality fishing that keeps folks coming back year after year.
