White Bass
Durham, North Carolina, offers some exciting white bass fishing opportunities, particularly during their spring spawning runs. While not as widely discussed as largemouth bass, Falls Lake is a prime location to intercept these feisty fish. The white bass typically migrate up the rivers and creeks that feed into Falls Lake in early spring, as the water temperatures rise. Look for them near the mouths of these tributaries, where they congregate to spawn. Small crankbaits, spinners, and jigs are effective lures. A local tip: pay attention to water clarity. White bass prefer clearer water, so focus on areas where the water is less turbid. Public access is available at various points around Falls Lake, including several boat ramps. The white bass in Falls Lake are known for their aggressive strikes, making for an action-packed fishing experience.
