Pending record white bass for Sabine River on the fly - 02/18/16 01:22 PM
Got into the Mother Lode of big white bass yesterday on the Sabine south of FM2517.
They hit chartruse over white clousers with abandon. Many fish were over 3 pounds and 17 inches including the one shown below which we are filing for the water body record on the fly. On a 5 wt rod, they are a terrific sport fish, terrific.
All but a couple of the fish (kept for supper) were released. This was consistently the largest white bass I have ever seen in my years of fishing the runs in Texas. Its going to be a great run.
