Seasonal Activity Chart

White Bass
White bass enthusiasts will find some seasonal action near Princeton, NC, particularly in the Neuse River. These feisty fish make their spawning runs upstream in the early spring, typically February through April, providing exciting opportunities for anglers. The key is to target areas with current, such as below small rapids or at the confluences of creeks. Small jigs, spinners, and crankbaits are effective lures. Check the water levels before you go; high, muddy water can make fishing difficult. A local's secret is to focus on the areas where the Little River feeds into the Neuse; these junctions often hold concentrations of white bass during their migration. While the white bass runs aren't as massive as in some other parts of the state, they provide a welcome burst of action after the winter months.
