White River Lake Fishing Guide

Angling Opportunities

Fishing for largemouth bass is excellent at White River Reservoir. The lake consistently produces fish over 8 pounds and has produced a fish for the ShareLunker program. Walleye are regularly stocked, with the peak fishing period from April through June.

Cover & Structure

Structure is primarily rock with some areas of flooded brush and vegetation. Changes in water level drastically effect the amount of cover

Tips & Tactics

Spring is best time of year for largemouth bass. Water levels can fluctuate dramatically. Spinnerbaits and suspending baits work well in spring. Diving baits that have a lot of action and bump the bottom will attract strikes when visibility is poor. Carolina-rigged worms and crawdad imitations are good year-round baits.

Fishing Regulations

All species at White River Lake are managed under standard Texas statewide regulations.
