White bass run

Anyone have some good locations on where to catch good numbers and good size white bass during there spring run

Deer Creek , if the water is right, sometimes in spring heavy rains they will shut dam up and flood lake. Last year was a good run and creek was full of white bass. I have seen better years with bigger fish but it was still pretty good.
Another one is buck creek running into CJ Brown , not much room to park but the small creek can fill up with WB when they make their run, again it depends on water levels, if they dont let the lake fill in time the fish stay in lake there.

Thanks for the advice do you fish those lakes for them if so can you send me a pm if they are running haven't been able to find a good run in awhile thinking about heading to Freemont or the Maumee river if I can't seem to find them around me

they run depending on water temp. usually at deer creek the run will be somewhere around first of April and run a month , again depends a lot on the weather, can be early or later. I used to make the trip to Fremont and call ahead to check the run , then when I would get there they would stop. I started driving around to local lakes that had WB populations and found when they run and have had way better luck closer to home.

Forget About CJ...between the COE, ODNR, and Idiot fishermen, they have managed the Lake to the point of severely Damaging the WB population. Every year the WB population has declined...last year was my worst WB year ever! Very Sad...I fished Stripers in South Carolina for the entire time down there...WB were my fix, and very edible in early Spring! The Local Idiots don't want to realize that the WB helped Control the Out of Control Shad population!
I have pics of mass catches of WB laying on the ground dead...you could find them all along the rocks dead...add the COE playing old 1950's water management, and the ODNR wanting the eradication, and the
WB fishery is done!

That's terrible I have some of the same problems here at Alum creek people over fishing them taking the big and small ones and they don't have much chance to actually spawn

that is sad, guess that why I havent been up there for several years now, I know last few times there seemed I was never there when water was right or fish were in creek.My biggest complaint about fishing there was all the trash along the stream , and someone used to dump fish up in the small parking lot by the bridge and it always had a horrible smell. Not my favorite spot to fish but I have had some good times there years ago. And always the biggest WB I would catch all year.
