I bet those taste good. We had an invasive white bass in a lake in California but they got bigger than that, maybe the same fish.

Anyway, enjoy the work and the meals after.

walleye come in before the white bass here and the walleye haven't started yet. Water temps are only 40 degrees.

Yes I guess the technical name would be white bass. Just always called them sand bass. Most of the one we caught are Male which is smaller then the females. The female are starting to make it up this way. [Linked Image]
These are some of the nicer one we catch, we do get some bigger but thats about the normal size for what we get out of the creeks that go in to eufalua lake. In the last 5 day we have caught a little over 400 fish.

Wow, a lot of fun and a lot of meat in the freezer too! Ohio stinks lol.....

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

White hoss suckers - Is that what they call them in the Southeast?

Matt28 thats a great day fishing!!! My absolute favorite fish to catch are white bass. Fight like no other fish and every one feels like the big one. We ought to start catching numbers of them around here in the next few weeks. I fish on the Neosho River for them every year at least one time and always catch a bunch. This is a pic of me and a buddy two years ago after a day on the river. We caught 75 white bass/wipers and 30+ channel cat that day in late March.

What color? Chartreuse? That's what we always had the best luck with.

I’m curious is that mud or growths on those fish? I’ve never really seen that before on fish.
