White Bass

Looking for some white bass action near Cheyenne, Oklahoma? Foss Reservoir is your best bet for some fast-paced fishing. These schooling fish provide plenty of excitement, especially during their spring spawning runs. Look for them in the early spring months (March-April) near the dam and in the river channels as they move upstream to spawn. Small crankbaits, spinners, and jigs are effective lures. During the summer, white bass will often school in open water, chasing shad. Watch for surface activity or use your electronics to locate schools. A local pro-tip: early morning and late evening are often the most productive times. The white bass population in Foss is generally robust, offering consistent catches. Boat ramps are available around the reservoir, but be prepared for some wind, as Foss can get choppy.
