White Bass in Lacassine?
2 Attachment(s)
Anybody ever caught or heard of a white bass in Lacassine. My son caught what appears to be one today. Was this part of the restocking? I was kinda surprised when he pulled it out of the water. Attachment 49626Attachment 49627

That's a white bass or we call a bar fish. It Lac...isolated from any other water ways? If not that's where it came from. They love moving water.

I got catfish in my pond that I didn't stock! Birds bring a lot of that in by getting eggs stuck on their legs. |

They are actually two different fish. The fish in the picture is a yellow bass, biggest ones you'll catch will be about 1-1.5lbs, average size is about the size of the one in the pic to the about .5lb probably. A barfish (white bass) can get pretty sizeable, I think the LA record is somewhere around 6-7 lbs, but average size is around 1-2lbs, and 3-4lber would be large. Then there are hybrids and stripers, which can also look similar to the others. |

They most likely got in there for the highwater. We have been catching them in the marsh lakes around there for years.

Bell city ditch is loaded with them, when the ditch gets high it backs up through the weir into the refuge.
