White Bass
While not as widely targeted as some other species, Lake Alfred and the Butler Chain of Lakes do hold a population of white bass that can provide some fun fishing, especially during their spawning runs. These smaller relatives of the striped bass tend to be most active in the spring as they move upstream to spawn. Look for them in the canals and connecting channels between the lakes. Small jigs, spinners, and crankbaits are effective lures. These fish often school, so if you catch one, there are likely more nearby. Access is available at Lake Alfred Park. Be aware that white bass are sensitive to water temperature and oxygen levels, so fish early or late in the day during warmer periods. Keep an eye out for surface activity, as they will often chase baitfish.
