White Bass
White bass fishing around Athens, Alabama, can be a blast, especially during their spring spawning runs. The key is to target the Elk River and its tributaries as the water warms up. These fish migrate upstream to spawn, congregating in large numbers. The Limestone County area offers good access. For boaters, the Elk River provides multiple launch points. Bank fishing can also be productive, especially near bridges and culverts. A local tip is to keep an eye on water levels. After a heavy rain, the white bass often move into the flooded areas along the banks. Small jigs, spinners, and crankbaits are effective lures. White bass fishing is often fast-paced, and you might even find yourself catching multiple fish at once. These fish aren't huge, but they are aggressive and provide plenty of action, making it a great option for anglers of all skill levels.
