Are The Whites Still Surfacing?

[c & r]

I'm taking a couple of youngsters this weekend in hope of finding some surfacing whites.......I'm not very familiar with Table Rock and I will need to rely on the visual part of SEEING THEM ON TOP. ....any suggestions concerning location, etc. would be very much appreciated.

Watch for Gulls, I saw several surfacing on Wednesday in the pockets on the left side as you are heading into indian point, but to answer your question, they are still surfacing. I got a report from some folks that said around Baxter boat dock they have been going crazy as well.

I hope this doesn't pull things too far off track. But, how late in the season is it common to keep catching white bass?

Motoman,

Back in the day (5 or so yrs ago) when I lived in Springfield we used fish them hard up on Stockton Lake with a fly rod throwing clouser minnows and such. We would wade the main lake points when the wind was right, you know blowing straight in or quartering to, the harder the better. Those fish would come so shallow at times and not just small fish but 2-3 lbrs were common. I used to catch em' like this all the way into Novemember when the conditions were right. It seemed like it would always start in September and carry on through deer season. Oh, those were good times.!

I'm down here in Harrison now and need to be doing some research on areas around here where I guy can make that happen. It truly is way too much fun!
