White Bass
If you're looking for some fast-paced white bass action, Chadbourn, NC, offers some surprisingly good freshwater opportunities. While not as well-known as some other fisheries in the state, the Lumber River and its tributaries near Chadbourn can hold decent populations of white bass, especially during their spring spawning runs. Focus your efforts from late February through April when the whites move upstream to spawn. They'll often congregate below dams and in areas with current. Smaller jigs, spinners, and crankbaits are typically effective. A local tip: check the water level before you go, as heavy rains can make the river muddy and difficult to fish. There are a few access points along the Lumber River State Park, but be prepared for some walking as bank access can be limited in places. These aren't trophy-sized fish, but their aggressive strikes and willingness to chase lures make for a fun day on the water.
