White bass from shore are popular now and anglers have reported catching Wipers up to 5 lbs in the last few weeks. The bass have been a little inconsistent but when you find them, expect to hook up often. Spin fisherman using chartreuse and white jigs, kastmasters, and small spinners are finding good bass numbers. Fly fisherman are finding bass on bright streamers along many of the sand beaches. In addition to the bass, aggressive carp and even a few large walleye have been caught this season. As temperatures rise, fishing will just continue to get better.
