White Bass
White bass fishing around Pringle, South Dakota, offers a unique prairie experience. While not as abundant as in larger reservoir systems, white bass can be found in Angostura Reservoir and a few other smaller lakes in the area. The key is to target the right time of year, primarily the spring spawning run. As the ice melts and water temperatures rise, white bass congregate in the upper ends of reservoirs and in the tributary streams to spawn. This is when they are most accessible and aggressive. Small crankbaits, spinners, and white or chartreuse jigs are all effective. A local tip: focus on areas with current or where streams enter the reservoir. Also, pay attention to bird activity; diving birds often indicate schools of baitfish, which the white bass will be chasing. While the fish may not be huge, the fast action and beautiful scenery make for a memorable trip. Be prepared for windy conditions, as the prairie can be quite exposed.
