Randleman Lake Popular Fish - Largemouth Bass

Largemouth Bass Fishing

Randleman Lake offers good fishing for largemouth bass. Lately the fishing here for bass has been improving. Some big bass roam Randleman Lake, thanks to excellent fisheries management by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, as well as the availability of extensive cover for both baitfish and bass. When the bite is good, bass typically move shallow and are quite aggressive. If you find them shallow and they are not tempted to bite, slow down and use smaller, lighter baits. Fishing for largemouth bass is good virtually any time they are shallow - in spring, mornings in summer, and during warm Fall afternoons. Use shallow crankbaits around rip rap. Around grass use worms, jigs, topwater and spinnerbaits. In deeper water, big worms, jigs and spoons are three good weapons. In winter, spend your time fishing Randleman Lake on deeper structure where the bass spend much of their time. Smallmouth bass and spotted bass also reside here in good numbers.

Crappie Fishing

Black crappie and white crappie both make their home in Randleman Lake. As a general rule, black crappie typically out-weigh white crappie. They do school together so when you find them you may catch both species. Crappie fishing is on the rise and they can be found in sizeable schools. Crappie always like cover and structure, so locate brush and vegetation. Using a fish finder can help locate schools of crappie, which tend to stack vertically around cover. Live bait and small jigs are the most common method for crappie here. As the crappie move deep in summer and winter, follow points out deep, as well as find ledges near channels in deeper water.
