White Bass
While not as renowned as other California locations for White Bass, Escondido presents a unique, albeit limited, opportunity to target them in lakes like Lake Hodges. These fish are not a primary target species, but they can be found, especially during their spawning runs. Spring is your best bet, as warming waters trigger their movement. Look for them in the upper reaches of the lake near creek inlets or around submerged structure where they congregate to spawn. A local tip is to focus on areas with current, as White Bass prefer moving water. Small crankbaits and spinners are effective lures, mimicking the baitfish they feed on. Be aware that White Bass numbers in Escondido lakes are relatively low compared to other areas, so persistence is key. Also, be mindful of the regulations regarding bag limits and size restrictions, as they may differ from other bass species.
