White Bass
While Staunton, Virginia, isn't typically the first place that comes to mind for white bass, the spring spawning runs in the South River and its tributaries can offer some exciting fishing. These fish migrate upstream to spawn, congregating in predictable areas. The peak season is typically late March through April, depending on water temperature. Look for white bass around riffles, current breaks, and below dams. Small jigs, spinners, and crankbaits are effective lures. A local tip: Check the river conditions before you go. Heavy rains can muddy the water and make fishing difficult. Also, be prepared to move around to find the fish, as they can be concentrated in specific spots. The white bass in the South River are generally smaller than those found in larger reservoirs, but their aggressive strikes and schooling behavior make for some fast-paced action. Remember to respect private property along the riverbanks and practice catch and release to help maintain the fishery.
