Recently there has been an increase in the number of anglers fishing for white bass and crappie. It’s probably due to the fact that white bass and crappie are fun to catch and anyone with a boat or even on shore can fish for them. Anglers also like the fact there are normally liberal limits allowing the angler to take some home to eat. Southern reservoirs normally have good populations of white bass and crappie. That fact is not overlooked by anglers wanting to experience a bobber going under or a tug on the end of the line.
Going out fishing is fun, but catching fish is what makes fishing exciting no matter how young or old you are. That’s why anglers go fishing for white bass and crappie. They are aggressive most of the time and bite year round.
“Taking out clients fishing for white bass or crappie is fun. Everyone enjoys catching them. Grand Lake has a healthy population of white bass and crappie that are willing to bite almost every day,” said Grand Lake fishing guide Rusty Pritchard (http://www.rustypritchardoutdoors.com/).
Grand Lake is renowned for its white bass aka sand bass population. “In the spring of the year white bass will make a run up the river arms to spawn.

Pritchard noted that anglers shouldn’t go to deep when fishing for white bass during the summertime since they are mostly in shallow water with the exception of fishing a FLE FLY jigging spoon for them on humps.
