  • I headed down to one of my favorite spillways to see if any white bass were showing up yet. It turned out the big mama white bass had arrived en masse. I had a blast catching them using several different presentations.

    Great to have you back at the power plant. I always love to watch your content. Fantastic, as usual. Like Kevin in the other comment, I was really invested in the saga of your keys! Nice job keeping your audience hanging!

      Thanks, you make a good point. From a story tellers point of view I should have finished the story by showing that I found the keys. I got distracted by the fishing! I found the keys right when I arrived to my car. The daylight really made a difference. I had laid them on the bumper for some reason.

      I guess the abundance of shad helps them grow into jumbos! Usually there is a mixture of big ones and small ones but this year they are mostly just big ones - which I'm OK with! Thanks!

      It happens! It usually all balances out. You're probably due for a hot bite now.

    Nice video. Wish we had white bass that size where I live. Not sure how much you know about white bass so I'll tell a little. You're catching them in pre spawn which is great. During this time, the males go upstream first and group up and wait for the females to arrive. When the females show up, it's on. They will travel around in schools to do their thing. Since they can't go past the damn, that is where they stop. With these bass sometimes they will pick a spot to hang out and stay, sometimes just for a bit and sometimes for hours. Other times they will move slowly from one spot to another. Simply put, you have found the "honey hole"; they picked a spot 5-10 feet from you and decided to stay there. To know for sure, next time cast a few feet past then left and right. If there is no bites you know they just picked that one spot to stay in. Next day they may be somewhere else! I've had them so close to me at the bank I would just dip my lure in the water where I'm standing and pull one out every time. Keep catching!

      Thanks for watching and thanks for all the info! It seems like you are a fellow lover of white bass and striped fish in general. Definitely near the top of my list to catch.

    never see you fish opposite side. is it even worth while, or just too much traffic?

    • @BackroadsAngling
      @BackroadsAngling  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The other side is good too. Sometimes I stand on the power plant side and watch them across the river smack fish after fish while I catch very little. It really just depends on the day. I do fish the other side on occasion but I don't feel like I have it dialed in like I do the power plant side.
