White Bass
For some fast-paced white bass action near Summerset, South Dakota, head to the larger reservoirs in the region. Angostura Reservoir, located southwest of Summerset, is a popular spot for targeting these schooling fish. White bass are known for their aggressive feeding habits, making them a fun target for anglers of all skill levels. Spring is the best time to fish, as the white bass move upstream to spawn. Look for them near river inlets and areas with current. Small crankbaits, spinners, and jigs are all effective lures. A local tip: keep an eye out for birds diving on the water, as this often indicates a school of white bass feeding on baitfish below. When you find them, the action can be non-stop. Be prepared for a crowd, especially on weekends during the spring run. While the white bass in Angostura Reservoir aren't typically huge, their sheer numbers and willingness to bite make for an exciting fishing experience.
