White Bass

If you're after some fast-paced white bass action, Pottsboro, Texas, and Lake Texoma are hard to beat. Known locally as 'sandies,' these fish school up in massive numbers, especially during their spring spawning run. The Red River and Washita River arms of the lake are prime locations during this time. Look for birds diving or boats clustered together – these are often signs of a white bass school. For a practical tip, try using small jigs, crankbaits, or even live minnows fished under a bobber. The key is to find the schools and present your bait effectively. Also, be prepared for a crowd, as the spring run draws anglers from all over. Outside of the spawn, look for white bass chasing shad in open water. The white bass in Lake Texoma are known for their energetic fights, making them a fun target for anglers of all skill levels. Be sure to check the lake's fishing report for current conditions and fish activity.
