Want an Unforgettable Bass Fishing Experience? Head to the Potholes Reservoir Near Moses Lake

If you’re headed to Potholes Reservoir near Moses Lake, you’re in for a real treat. Anglers come from all over to fish for the largemouth bass that call this place home. And it’s no wonder why – the reservoir has plenty of great hideaways, nooks, and crannies for these big fish to call home. But don’t worry, with the help of Reel Time Fishing as your guide you will snag yourself a bunch of Largemouth Bass, in no time.

Long ago, the cascading floodwaters of Glacial Lake Missoula left behind a unique landscape in Washington. Thousands upon thousands of tiny islands were formed when O’Sullivan Dam was built and water level fluctuations allowed for willows to grow on them; this created an ideal habitat for Largemouth Bass! You can also find Smallmouth Bass around rocky areas too.

They know the hot spots like the back of their hands and will take you to the best locations to cast your line.

I had the best time steelhead fishing on the Clearwater with Captain Jim from Reel Time Fishing. He put us on the fish and we were able to bring in all that we caught. He was very professional and accommodating in every way. He made us a great hot lunch each day. We back trolled and side drifted and had so much fun bringing in all those beautiful fish. We stayed at the Lenore Lodge which was 3 mins from the launch. The lodge had 10 beds and an awesome game room. It was very clean and comfortable. I do suggest Reel Time Fishing for an epic trip and I will definitely return for more fishing.

We fished a half day for Sturgeon with Jeff and had a great trip. Caught 3 Sturgeon and one was really nice (7'6"). Boat and equipment were top notch. Definitely would book with Reel Time again. Don't be afraid to book with them, the price is right and the guides know what they are doing. Thanks for the great trip.
