I couldn't agree with u more on white bass. THey say the Jordan river is like 90 % carp but good god white bass are EVERYWHERE. I betcha I could pole out 10-20 bass in 2 hours of fishing in 1 spot alone and probably catch more. I know exactly how to catch them and almost anywhere I go on the river, I've ran into them. Simply put, I can't do what I do to catch them otherwise that's the only thing i'll end up catching in any of my spots. 1 time I actually hooked literally like a 2 inch white bass...he was probably a baby and I actually left him on my hook in hopes of using him as live bait for a big fish. Unfortunately he just swam around untouched for a while and i gave up on it lol.
By the way, I have no Idea if it was a carp or not but about 2 weeks ago I was on the Jordan River on 12600 South looking for my wallet that I lost the night before and when I was walking up the banks, I looked over and there's 4 fish around 14 inches swimming n this white foam stuff and all the sudden 1 of them jumps and they all just scatter.....the next thing I know, I see the biggest fish I've ever seen in that river come just barelling down the river. He was AT LEAST 3 feet long and probably about a foot fat! I ended up literally chasing him for about 200 yards down stream...during the midst of this, there was a spot only about a foot deep where it was full of big rocks and it looked like rapids and through that part, he made it so half of his body was actually out of the water. He eventually made his way to this 1 really slow and deep corner and the landed was positioned so it was basically a dam right there. I tryed sneaking up on him and taking a picture but the f'er went underwater right when I got close enough....
But yeah, I'm sorry. I should keep some of my young thoughts in check. I'm only 18 but already have a old body [
