White Bass out of logansport 2/27

[AceArcher]

Just now getting around to posting this.

Good friend and me went up to logansport on the sabine to try after the White bass run.

Man it was coooooooooooooold for the first hour till that sun joined in. Lines were icing up in the guides and on them reels.

But can't complain to much, because the bite was on. In the first hour picked up a solid 20 fish between the two of us, and then they turned off like a light switch.

We tried various color baits, switched to crawfish, and other than catching 2 decent sized channel cats did not have a nibble.

We picked up a few here and there working all the sandbars with roadrunners, orange head with either black chart or blue white were the ticket.

Also picked up a nice 13 inch crappie that must have been lost.

Didn't take pictures of the box with everything in it, but here are a couple pictures of the fish i kept (15 whites and the crappie) another 15 whites and the two channels went home with my buddy.

If your up that way they are running pretty good now... so go get you some.

They are running pretty good sized, most of the females are 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 lbs. And filled with some delicious eggs if your into that.

Also chance of snow this tuesday night.... ***????

I think they eat very well. The trick with them is that they do have a bloodline, and you do want to make sure and remove all of it.

If you do that i would say they eat just as good as a crappie, meat is just a bit firmer and flakier.

If you like fish eggs, every female comes loaded with what i swear is darn near a 1/2 lb of roe sacks....
