White Bass
White bass, also known as sand bass, offer exciting action near Canton, Mississippi, especially during their spring spawning runs. While not as common as largemouth or crappie, they can be found in the Pearl River and connected waterways. The key is to target areas where the river narrows or where tributaries enter, creating current breaks. Spring is the prime time, as they migrate upstream to spawn. Small jigs, spinners, and crankbaits are effective lures. A local tip: white bass often school tightly, so if you catch one, chances are there are more nearby. Look for surface activity or birds diving, which can indicate feeding schools. While the white bass in this area may not reach trophy sizes, they provide fast-paced action and are excellent table fare. Be prepared for a fun fight on light tackle.
