While there’s a lot of misinformation and misidentification out there in the fishing community, the Mean Mouth Bass has a fairly straightforward description these days.
Mean Mouth Bass are usually considered offspring of a Spotted Batt and a Smallmouth Bass. Since these fish are present in Lake Ouachita, that makes the area ideal for finding these rare fish.
With that being said, it’s still quite tricky to catch them. Only a handful have been hooked in recent years and changes to the habitat likely mean it’s only going to get harder going forward.
