Hey Slowretrieve. I've only fished for white bass at one place near me and that is Huntington Resevoir near Markle IN. The white bass run up the Wabash River that runs into the resevoir in the spring beginning around mid April into May. We wade the small river and throw jigs for them. We have lots of days where we catch up to 30 - 40. Not too many big ones though. I usually get a couple each year pushung 14 inches. I hear lots of stories of people cathing much bigger, but I haven't seen them. I would say they average about 11-12". The only bad part is the small water can become really flooded quickly if it rains. The year before last I only got to fish for white bass one day, the rest of the spring the resevoir was flooded and you couldn't even get to the river. Thats happened a couple of times in the last five years or so. Its a lot of fun though. Its pretty easy fishing. Usually if their in the river they'll hit just about anything. Raod Runners, twister tails, anything that they can see they'll usually hit hard. The water is always a little stained coming form the Wabash so chatruese, white, and yellow seem to produce well for me. A lot of guys throw nightcrawlers undr floats for them also. I have so much fun catching them because of the hit and how hard they fight. Thats why I am so hyped about catching a wiper. Tight Lines and Screamin Drags to Ya!!!!
