White Bass
White Bass fishing in the Harris Chain of Lakes near Tavares, Florida, can be surprisingly rewarding. These schooling fish offer fast action, especially during their spring spawning runs. Target the connecting canals and rivers between the lakes in late winter and early spring. Look for areas with current and structure, such as bridges and rocky points. Small jigs, spinners, and crankbaits are all effective lures. A lightweight rod and reel are ideal for casting these smaller lures. Remember that White Bass are schooling fish, so if you catch one, there are likely more nearby. A local tip: The Ocklawaha River, which connects to the Harris Chain, can be a hotspot during the spawn. Be sure to check water levels and clarity before heading out.
