Lake Whitney Sandbass Catching Tips

As you can see the sandbass (sometimes called whites) are everywhere spawning and biting everything in site. I fish Lake Whitney daily and you can fill an icebox or live well with a limit of 25 per person pretty darn fast. Usually within an hour you have caught enough fish to have one heck of a fish fry. I have been catching these fish on 2 kinds of baits. Any bait with silver in it will work well. I use silver supra dolphin brand spoons, and silver rattle traps and fish just can't get enough of these shad like baits. Always look for birds feeding on shad, because where there's birds there are tons of fish. Fishing guides often find the birds on trips fishing, so if you see a boat load of people catching fish most likely birds are around or have been. Another tip is to look for several boats ganged up in a certain area. They are not there for sight-seeing only. Their on the fish and just ease up (not too close) and you most likely will join in the fun. Anyway have fun this summer and don't catch them all.
