Third Black Bass Species Found In Several States
The third black bass species, the spotted or Kentucky bass, is prevalent across Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, Kentucky, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri, Mississippi, Virginia, Illinois, Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Texas. It closely resembles the small mouth in form but is broader and deeper with variable spots that fade out of water. This hardy game fish feeds on crawfish and small minnows, has similar nesting habits to the small mouth, and its large brood improves survival in its waters.
