A '''Spike Bass'''<ref>''New Super Mario Bros.'' Nintendo Player's Guide. Page 12.</ref> is an enemy in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''. It resembles an oversized, dark red tadpole with a pale underbelly. Spike Bass also has beaming yellow eyes, sharp teeth and spikes all over its body.

Spike Bass only appear in two levels, [[World 2-A (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 2-A]] and [[World 3-C (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 3-C]]. In it, a Spike Bass [[jump]]s out of the water to try and attack [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. This is similar to how [[Boss Bass]]es behave nearly the same way except Spike Basses do not try to swallow Mario or Luigi. Spike Bass can only jump up to a certain height, and from a height, Mario or Luigi can likely avoid taking damage from them.
