White Bass

For fast-paced action, consider targeting White Bass near Buffalo, Texas. Lake Limestone is a prime location for these schooling fish, especially during their spring spawning run. The Whites migrate up the Navasota River and its tributaries to spawn, creating exciting fishing opportunities. Focus your efforts near creek mouths, points, and areas with current. Small crankbaits, spinners, and jigs are all effective lures. Keep an eye out for surface feeding activity, as schools of white bass will often chase shad to the surface. A local tip: early morning and late evening are often the best times to find schooling activity. The area around the Highway 7 bridge on Lake Limestone is a popular spot. White bass fishing is typically best from late February through April. These fish are not usually very large, but they are plentiful and put up a good fight on light tackle, making for a fun day on the water. Always check Texas Parks and Wildlife regulations for bag and size limits, as they can vary.
