I don’t think I’ve ever caught a white bass that deep.  I caught a yellow bass about 15 ft once.

They stage in the deep holes until that water hits about 57-59 degrees then race to the shoals and do the magic dance. There’s another hole downriver that’s about 60 feet, they stack in there too

It’s been a while since I’ve seen whites stacked up like that.  We used to see them a lot in the fall and winter on Bull Shoals and Table Rock.  I’ve caught a lot of them around 30’ deep and spooned them as deep as 60’.

They would just lightly grab a tiny fluke last night and hold still down 30 feet 

 

They are more fun to catch running a paddle tail on the mud flats and they pin in to the bottom in a foot of water

In Minnesota in the Spring, they tend to suspend and run in packs. Best way to catch is a good ol' jerk bait.

We caught most of ours on buck tail jigs from 1/16 to 1/4 oz depending on depth and current.

Eh, 7-8. After work and before dark, not much time

I love white bass. There's nothing as exciting as seeing a school chasing shad to the surface while the gulls dive on the shad.
