Okay, I’m not a fisherman so excuse my ignorance.

Isn’t a Bass a warm water fish?

Tahoe has got to be the coldest, most package shriveling lake I have ever had the misfortune to swim in on a bet). How are the bass thriving?

The upper 12 feet of Lake Tahoe can warm to 68 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer.

The average surface temperature of Lake Gichigami during the summer is about 55 °F

“The smallmouth prefers cooler water temperatures than its cousin the largemouth bass, and may be found in both still and moving water.”

As a Texan, I can tell you I've caught nearly all the sub-species of bass in our waters of many description.

I'd have to say most of them are highly adaptable.
