White Bass
White bass offer exciting fishing opportunities around Trenton, NC, especially during their spring spawning runs. These fish are known for their aggressive strikes and schooling behavior, making for fast-paced action when you find them. The Trent River and its tributaries are your best bet for targeting white bass. During the spring, they migrate upstream to spawn, concentrating in areas with current and gravel bottoms. Look for them near bridges, dams, and creek mouths. Local tip: Small jigs, spinners, and crankbaits are effective lures for white bass. Also, pay attention to water clarity, as they prefer clearer water. If the river is muddy after a rain, try fishing in the tributaries. White bass in this region typically range from 1-3 pounds, but they fight hard for their size. Be prepared for some arm-tiring action when you locate a school.
