White Bass CATCH & COOK Fishing TINY Shad Lures
video description
Maybe not so when they are smaller/young fish.
Seems like most of the White Bass I have ever caught, was during the Spring spawn, and were mostly big females; some up to about 2 lbs.
Cant say I have ever tried to fish for them back out in the main lake, though I have caught them there from time to time.
We would have to cut the red meat line off of the outside center or the filet to reduce the extreme fishiness taste.
Grew up in NW Arkansas (Fayetteville) fishing on Beaver Lake. The white bass would run up into the arms of White River to spawn in Spring.
Boats and Fishermen everywhere; many more on the bank than in John Boats. The river had a lot of shallow shoals up in river spawning areas; to shallow for a modern day bass boat.
We would slay them fishing with live crawdads on the bottom! Catching the crawdads was kinda fun also!
We would sane flooded roadside ditches and Spring rain flooded farm lowlands with nets, scoop them crusty crawlers up by the hundreds sometimes!
White Bass preferred the soft shell crawdads about an inch and a half long.
Ahhh, those were the Days! Life was just, well, Simple and Fun!
One could be in fishing Heaven with a couple thousand John Boat, a couple K-Mart Blue Light Special fishing rods, a package full of hooks, split shots, some bobbers and whatever natural bait one could dig up or catch.

A recent bass I cooked had no flavor, it was like trout, but not as tasty as trout, which is just barely. but it was fish! I use my grandpa's filet knife. The blade used to be about an inch wide and now it is closer to 3/4 since it has been sharpened so many times. It chops celery better than my chef knives, too. gets right down between the skin and the meat and peels it off clean, nothing wasted. Thanks, Grandpa. and Thank you for the tip about the full moon. Early morning is the best time for bass in summer around here. Your editing makes these videos really good. And your passion for fishing.

Ive got a ton of white bass fillets in the freezer and I want to fry them but they still have the skin on them. The fillets are so small that Im worried if I cut the skin off Ill take half of the meat off with it. Do you or anyone else watching have a suggestion of how I can get the skin off and preserve as much meat as I can?

You season the fish, bread it and if you add more seasoning you do it right after it comes out of the oil. To much heat burns the Garlic and makes it really bitter. That is why you have the oil thermometer. Frying fish that size would be 325 degree range.

Can't find a solid answer. Are white bass the same as a sand bass?
I'm thinking people from different regions of the U. S. are giving the same species of bass a different name.
