When White Bass(which I refer to as the small non-hybrid stripes) start to move into the sloughs to spawn, does this time frame only last for a day or two? This past Wednesday at about 5 o'clock I went out on my dock(which is almost at the end of my slough) just on a whim that I might see some action.  Believe it or not I caught 14 stripes on 15 casts using a small white-tail red head jig(all in a 1 to 2 pound range). I tried the same technique at about the same time and only caught a couple of fish each day over the next three days. The fish were caught on a light crappie rod-reel combo and put up a good fight. The main reason I am trying to learn more about how long the spawn usually lasts is because I was at the lake at almost the exact same time last year and had almost the same identical results(caught 12 fish on about 14 casts). I would appreciate any information on whether this is usually a "one" day big catch or might I have had a couple more good days if I had arrived at the lake a couple of days earlier. I am now 71 years old and as a teenager in north Alabama I used to fish for stripes with my Dad on the shoals of some backwater creeks(those were the "good old days".
