Early Whites

[Hunter91]

My 12yr old daughter and I caught 14 white bass between 12-14inches up the big Sac arm this afternoon. Most were real shallow in about 3 ft of water. Caught them on swimming minnows. Water temp got up to 48.5 where we were. Saw a few other boats catching some fish also.

Good going. It is about time those things were heading up river. Is that the same girl who caught the 6# bass last year?

Waterman, what were you jigging with....spoons,plastic,or live bait. Haven't been out in a while but hope to this week one day or over the weekend.

Dutch,

That was the same daughter. She has become quite the fishing person.

Iwas jigging with great big slicks i'd trapped. Didn't have any hits on minnows less tan three inches and they wanted it dragged next to the rocks in 17 or 18 ft. Missed a couple till i put on stinger hooks;but some of my minnows were 5-6 inches. Early like this i use a plane white northland jig. they have an eye on the bottom for their stingers thatt have little flyfishing snaps that go in the bottom eye. The darn is hard on these jigs cause they.re expensive as jigs w/stinger so I had 30lb fire line to save some. goodluck watermen
