Let's chat about our target species – the white bass. These silver-sided dynamos are pound-for-pound some of the hardest fighting fish in freshwater. They typically run 1-3 pounds, but don't let their size fool you – they punch well above their weight class. White bass are schooling fish, which means when you find 'em, you can often catch 'em one after another. They're most active in the spring during their spawning run, but we can catch them year-round on Lake Grapevine with the right tactics. These fish love to chase shad, so we'll be mimicking their favorite forage with our lures. The best part? They're not just fun to catch – they're delicious too, with firm, white flesh that's perfect for fish tacos or a classic fish fry.
Listen up, folks – if you're looking for a top-notch fishing experience without breaking the bank or taking up your whole day, this Lake Grapevine white bass trip is your ticket. We've got the gear, the know-how, and the hot spots dialed in. All you need to bring is your sense of adventure and maybe a cooler for your catch.

White bass are real firecrackers on the line. These silvery fighters usually run 10-12 inches but can hit 18 inches and up to 7 pounds. You'll find them schooling in open water or around structure, especially during their spring spawning run up tributaries. They're aggressive feeders, so once you spot a school, it's game on. Best fishing is spring through fall, with the spawn in March-May being prime time. White bass put up a scrappy fight for their size and taste great too. Locals love chasing them when they're busting shad on the surface - that's exciting fishing. For consistent action, I like working small jigs or soft plastics along points and ledges. A 1/8 oz white marabou jig is hard to beat. When you see them feeding up top, throwing spinners or small topwaters can be deadly. Just be ready for some acrobatics when they hit!
