White Bass Are Running

[Ronald Meeder]

Went to Delware River, above Lake Perry, the whites are there, the fish we caught were all males. I wood like to know if the males go first up the river first, than the females. There were 5 trucks/boat trailers at the ramp south of Valley Falls, so the word must be speading.

Anyone have a location for the boat ramp around Valley Falls?

About 1 to 2 miles south of Valley Falls on K-4, go east on 150th Street. The road ends at the ramp after a few miles.

I was in a boat that did not have tempature on his locators. Tried for crappie the first three hours of fishing not a bite. We were leaving when we notice fish surfacing, turnout out it was gars. We started fishing to see anything was there chasing shad, that when found the whites. They made a bad trip a very good one.

Cross hairs are on the ramp. Just zoom out pan around and see how to get there.

Males show up first - females will come as the water warms closer to spawn temps.

The sows will also move in higher water flows. A white bass will spawn on riffles or areas of wave wash, as the egg tumbles and matures after so-many revolutions they hatch. They be digging that current.
