Maybe I wasn't looking. I don't pay much attention to the boat and lake stories, Billet, no lakes in my three county area and the Navy cured me of needing to ride in boats. Didn't even know white bass existed for most of my life and the ones I ate were unimpressive. Your pictures are impressive but I don't really know what the fish are. I guessed hybrids by the broken stripes? Never seen either of them, so.. I guess they have both in Grand and Beaver but I think the non res permits cost too much for the number of times I might fish there. Who is Charlie anyhow? The vid still don't work on my machine. Your handy with a computer. Google up temperate bass in Missouri. It will tell you all you want and need to know. No boat needed either.

Take that sucker to the salt so you can see how bad your drag sucks and see where your backing is attached to the reel. Daryk Campbell Sr and snagged in outlet 3 2

BilletHead I do believe that a guy who used to participate more on the forum still holds the white bass on a fly rod world record. Think Mr. Doty was in the boat when it happened.

snagged in outlet 3 Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 White bass only bite when I'm at home, driving to the run or driving back from the run. They never bite when I'm there. I have a real grudge against them and they owe me a lot of gas money. Daryk Campbell Sr, patfish, Johnsfolly and 1 other 4
