Friday, 16 March 2007 07:12

It is that time of year again ... fishermen are out on Georgia's lakes and rivers, looking out for white bass. The bass begin ther spawning runs up several Georgia rivers in late February through early April, making March the perfect time to hit the waters.

The News Reporter has a nice article about fishing in the local area, saying that even if the white bass action slows, the white bass' bigger cousins - stripers and hybrids - are also out there waiting to be caught."

Silvery in hue, white bass have several faint horizontal side stripes. They travel in schools and can be found in large streams, rivers and lakes. The current state record was caught on Lake Lanier in 1971, weighing in at 5 lbs., 1 oz. Typical weights range from ½ to 2 lbs.
