White Bass
If you're looking for some fast-paced white bass action, Oakley, California, and the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta can deliver. While not as widely targeted as largemouth, white bass offer exciting light-tackle fishing. These schooling fish are most active during their spring spawning runs (typically March-May), when they congregate in large numbers in the Delta's waterways. Look for white bass near current seams, submerged structure, and areas where the Delta's various channels converge. Shad-imitation lures like small crankbaits, spinners, and swimbaits are highly effective. A local tip is to pay attention to bird activity – flocks of birds diving into the water often indicate the presence of feeding white bass. The area around the Antioch Bridge can be particularly productive. Because white bass are schooling fish, when you find one, you'll often find many. Keep moving until you locate an active school.
