If you're looking for some exciting white bass action in southeastern Virginia, Courtland offers some under-the-radar opportunities. The Blackwater River is the primary draw here, known for its healthy white bass population, especially during their spring spawning run. Focus your efforts from late February through April when the fish migrate upstream to spawn. They can be found congregating near rocky shoals, bridge pilings, and creek mouths. Small spinners, crankbaits, and jigs are all effective. Access to the Blackwater is available at a few public boat ramps and roadside access points, but be mindful of shallow water and submerged timber, especially upstream. Early morning and late evening can be particularly productive. The white bass in this river tend to run smaller than in larger impoundments, but what they lack in size, they make up for in numbers and fight.
