What would I fish for today?....After a little thought I decided to see if I could catch my first white bass of the year, so I headed to The Haw River to get in on the White Bass Run. I arrived at the ramp at aprox 4 pm and paddled to one of my spots. I immediately caught 1 and she happened to also be the biggest of the day. She hit a chartreuse grub fished real sloooooowww. The hits were very few and far between. I ended up with ~12 whites for the day and 5 redbreast and 1 bream.
Boat used - Old Town 158
Lures mainly used- Rooster tail and curly tail grub
Water Temp- 64 deg
Here is the first of the day
Some others
I only caught a few on the curly tail jig. I caught most white bass today on the red and white Roostertail.
I would of had a very poor day catch wise if I had not had that Roostertail. I also threw a pop r some but only had 2 hits on it. Here is a look at the 2 most productive lures today.
A nice Easter Sunday on the water. Wildlife seen today was a lot of Ducks and Geese, 1 Osprey, 1 Bald Eagle ,and lots of Turtles sunning. For more White Bass info see

Nice to hear the fish are still around.
Wish I would have talked to you earlier in the day. I would have been better off trying to catch white bass yesterday.
