Just curious which taste better the large ones or the smaller ones. Many of my friends like the smaller ones.

Never noticed, but you have me curious now. I'll test it out Saturday after I come home with a limit of whites...

The ones I catch are nearly all the same size so I never really noticed a change in taste.

I cant tell any taste difference, but I like eating the smaller ones. I prefer them because the fillets are just the right thickness and cook very well and float quickly. The last bunch of sand bass I got into at Twok, were very big and they looked like striper fillets.

Large white bass get that way from having plenty of forage where they tend to attain those football shapes which can mean more fatty filets. Also the red blood line is heavier on larger fish, which if not removed tends to effect the taste on either size fish. If you remove that red meat from the side of the filet (easier to remove from bigger fish, smaller ones not worth the trouble) of either size, you probably would have a hard time telling the difference according to size.

I grilled some on the half shell and they were great.had a unique flavor that you don't get with bass or crappie.They were all about 2#rs.
The driving force and secret desire of every bass fisherman, is to one day be a crappie fisherman............Could it be that the good Lord just smilies and looks the other way when a fisherman tells a lie?

I wash my whites/crappie in this for 10 min.Any scales,leftover blood, or fatty parts rise to the top and flow out. Then you cant tell between a white or crappie and they taste great. I hang it in a tree and you have to use a graden hose. It spins the water and fish with air mixed with water.

I agree with Jimbo. The large ones don't taste as well unless you cut the red meat out - like you would for hybrids and stripers.

Home Depot maybe?
