White Bass

If you're looking to tangle with white bass in the Somerville, Texas, area, Lake Somerville is your target. These schooling fish provide exciting action, especially during their spring spawning run. The whites migrate up the Yegua and Nails creeks, tributaries to the lake, in late winter and early spring. Trolling small crankbaits or casting jigs and spinners near the creek mouths can be highly effective. The Highway 111 bridge area is a popular spot. Keep an eye out for surface activity, as white bass will often school and chase shad. The white bass in Lake Somerville are generally plentiful, offering a great opportunity for both novice and experienced anglers. Check local fishing reports for the latest migration patterns, as this can vary slightly year to year depending on water temperatures and flow.
