White Bass

If you're looking for some fast-paced white bass action in Georgia, Whitesburg offers some excellent opportunities. The Little Tallapoosa River, along with nearby reservoirs like West Point Lake, are prime locations. Spring is undoubtedly the best time to target these schooling fish as they migrate upstream to spawn. Focus your efforts around river bends, submerged timber, and rocky shoals. A key to success here is understanding water levels. After heavy rains, the river can become turbid, making it tough to entice bites. Check the local river gauges before heading out. When the water is clear to slightly stained, try small spinners, crankbaits, and jigs in white, chartreuse, or silver. West Point Lake offers more stable conditions and boat access via several public ramps. Remember, white bass are aggressive feeders, so keep moving until you find them!
