White Bass

I went down this morning about 7am we fished Taylor bridge,steel bridge, and Morrisville bridge with nothing did not see any sign of white's being any where in the vicinity. Did see a guy a Taylor this morning catch a nice 20" walleye. I caught a lot of LM and a nice kentucky and a decent smallie my brother did the same there is a lot of small LM but no white's and this front darn sure didn't help none.

[Whodat]

You don't know how to fish is the deal!!!!!

[binman]

This cold snap is slowing the Whites down. Dammit, I'm chompin at the bit to get out there.

Good morning. "WHITES AT NIGHT". Sounds like a good movie name I met two gentleman one night at the Blunk Road Boat Ramp on the Upper James River Arm near Taylor Shoals last year and they were catching Very Large WHITES on PURPLE BEETLES. These men also said that they use these Beetles on all the Lakes in the Ozarks. Especially on Stockton when they find SHAD/BAIT FISH on the RADAR. They drop them beetles beneath the SHAD/BAIT FISH and catch nice WHITES and CRAPPIE.

But yes, they were doing pretty well at dark. We caught some nice WHITES on the JAMES this past Friday on White Rooster Tails. I took advantage of the .94Cent Sale at BASS PRO last week.

Last Summer, close to Orleans Bridge i caught 7 Large Mouths and 9 WHITES with the White Rooster Tails on the Little Sac. While the Bass were chasing SHAD on top of the water, I Boated all fish in 15 MIN. Sounds Crazy. My son was a sleep in the bottom of the boat. I did not have time to put the fish in the Basket. They all landed on him. I was trying to wake him up. By the time he got up and tied on a rooster tail, the action stopped.

I hope the LITTLE SAC WARMS UP SOON TOO.

All this snow and ice isn't going to help any.

I see next week is looking good with several warm days in a row after the last rains this weekend. Next week is looking better.

Id say those fish aren't in there yet. Stagging themselves right outside of the mouth. Has anyone graphed them yet around there?
