Black Fishing on Black River

How to catch Black River Bass
Smallmouth bass fishing takes place around Michigan waters, including Woman Lake, Cedar River, Rifle River, and Black River. Black River is popular for its brook trout, yet smallmouth bass fluid certain areas.

Smallmouth bass are often attracted by lures during spring, which is the spawning season. Open fall is another good time to catch smallmouth bass. In fact, anytime when the water is calm is a good time to catch bass. Black River stretches to Crockett Rapids, Clark Bridge Road, and McKinnon’s Bend. Throughout the streams are brown trout, brookies, northern pike, walleye, smallmouth bass, lake sturgeons, and so on. Kieber Dam stretches to Black River, which below the dam you cannot fish during April and May. The Michigan sturgeon spawns during this time. Most river and lakes have limits; however, at Black River you can catch the northern pike, which has no limits.

Black River has high spots, which you can fish via boat. If you use a motor boat, make sure you keep the engine running low. Roll the boat along rocky reef, weedy areas, or areas that provide hiding for smallmouth bass. Smallmouth bass tend to move toward the bottom of lakes and rivers where boulders, rock formations, plants, etc reside, especially when the sun is hot.

Black River is commonly known as Salvelinus Fontinalis. The river’s upper section is where the wild brookies swim. Fly-fishing takes place around McKinnon’s Bend. Along the bend are trails and public access stations. Moving ahead you will come upon the northern Montmorency County where the river slows. Along the East Branch, the river elongates mainstream. At East Branch you want to continue downstream where you will spot Spreads that lead you through braids and onto smallmouth bass. Brookies and northern pike run the area also.

Over at Tower the river is confined. In this area however, smallmouth run in schools. Northern pike also run the channels. Kleber is below the dam, which is the prime bass fishing area around Black River. You cannot fish here in April or May however, since sturgeons start spawning.

You can move down the river still at Black Lake to catch smallmouth bass. Walleyes, Muskies, and northern pike run this area also.

Smallmouth bass fishing requires skill. If you use boat, again keep the motor low and stay at a comfortable distance. Cast your rod over the school of smallmouth bass.

While searching for bass at Black River, search clear waters, shallow waters, and areas where trolling is avoided.

How to lure in bass:
Anglers often use prop-bait, crayfish, frogs, mice, spinnerbait, crankbait, slip-bobber rigs, etc. Attach leech to the rigs for the best bites. Tube jigs and crankbait are used during windy conditions. Bass also attract to 1/16-ounce tube rigs, floating Rapala, Rat-L tops, minnows, imitation minnows, insects, hair bugs, etc.

Spawning season is the best time to hunt bass, yet in Black River, you have restrictions to consider. Therefore, pick the best time when traveling to Black River. If you hunt female bass, use the prop-bait, jigs, crankbait, night crawlers, slip-sinkers, shiners, or crayfish. Male species are caught with live bait, such as crayfish, mice, frogs, pork, etc.

During summer and spring, month’s bass are best spotted in deep water. During this season, use slip-sinker rigs, large bait, red-tail clubs, crayfish, etc.

How to choose the best time for bass fishing:
Bass tend to attract to overcasts, especially when the water is calm. Look for bass in early morning, or evening. Smallmouth bass swim around Black River hanging around log-laden pools, rocky reefs, timber, etc.
