New Hampshire's lakes offer a smorgasbord of bass fishing opportunities, and we'll tailor our approach to what's working best. Early morning might find us throwing buzzbaits along rocky shorelines for aggressive smallies. As the sun climbs, we could switch to pitching jigs into submerged timber for big largemouth. Expect to cycle through a variety of techniques – from finesse presentations with soft plastics to power fishing with crankbaits and spinnerbaits. We'll hit diverse habitats too, from shallow, weedy bays to deep, rocky points. And here's a local pro tip: don't sleep on the current seams where rivers enter the lake – some of our biggest bass come from these transitional zones.
While we don't have specific customer reviews to share, our anglers have been crushing it this season. Smallmouth in the 3-4 pound range have been common, with a few 5+ pounders making appearances. Largemouth fishing has been equally stellar, with several bass over 6 pounds coming to the boat. Remember, it's not just about size – the acrobatic leaps of a hooked smallie or the heart-stopping blow-up of a largemouth on a topwater lure are what keep our clients coming back year after year.
Smallmouth Bass: These bronze bruisers are the crown jewels of New Hampshire's cool, clear lakes. Known for their acrobatic fights, smallies in these parts typically range from 1-3 pounds, but don't be surprised if you tangle with a 4 or 5 pounder. They love rocky structure and can often be found prowling the shallows in spring and fall. During summer, look for them near drop-offs and underwater humps. Smallmouth are particularly active in cooler water, making early morning and late evening prime time for topwater action.
Largemouth Bass: The heavyweight champs of NH's lakes, largemouth can grow to impressive sizes here. While 2-4 pounders are common, fish in the 6-8 pound range are caught every year. These ambush predators love cover – weeds, fallen trees, docks – you name it. They're less affected by warm water than their smallmouth cousins, so they remain active even during the dog days of summer. Spring and fall see them pushing shallow to feed, while summer finds them relating to deeper structure or holding tight to heavy cover. There's nothing quite like the heart-stopping strike of a big largemouth engulfing a surface lure!
It's not just about the fish – though they're a big part of it. Our trips offer a perfect blend of serious angling and pure enjoyment of New Hampshire's natural beauty. You'll spend the day on some of the most scenic lakes in the Northeast, surrounded by forested hills and maybe even catching a glimpse of local wildlife like loons or bald eagles. Our guides aren't just fish-finders; they're storytellers, local historians, and conservation advocates. You'll come away with improved fishing skills, a deeper appreciation for the local ecosystem, and memories that'll have you planning your next trip before you even get off the boat.

Largemouth bass are the heavyweight champions of New Hampshire's lakes, often reaching 3-6 pounds with some topping 10 pounds. These bucket-mouthed predators love warm, weedy waters and you'll find them lurking around submerged logs, lily pads, and boat docks. They're most active in spring and fall, but can be caught year-round. Largemouth are famous for their powerful strikes and tail-walking jumps when hooked. Anglers love targeting them for their size, fight, and the challenge of figuring out what they'll bite on any given day. They're decent eating too, especially the smaller ones. To fool a big largemouth, try slow-rolling a spinnerbait along weed edges or flipping a jig into heavy cover. Here's a local tip: on hot summer days, work a plastic worm very slowly along the bottom in deeper water - that's where the big ones hide out when it's scorching up top.
Smallmouth bass are feisty fighters that'll give you a run for your money. These bronze beauties typically range from 1-4 pounds, with some lunkers pushing 6-7 pounds. You'll find them in clear, cool waters with rocky bottoms - they love hanging around boulders and fallen trees. Spring and fall are prime times when they're most active in shallower water. Anglers prize smallies for their acrobatic jumps and hard-pulling fights. They're also excellent eating fish with firm, white meat. To up your odds, try working a tube jig or crankbait along rocky points and drop-offs. One local trick: on calm summer evenings, toss topwater lures near shore for some exciting surface action. Just be ready when they explode on your bait - smallmouth hit hard and don't give up easy!
