Difficult to tell from those pictures, but I believe you are right. See the broken lines on the top one? White bass. See how they run the length on the bottom two (I think...)? Look like striper. The only way to be positive is to check the tooth patch. Those are baby striper though. Generally, they are much larger than whites. And hybrids land somewhere in the middle. This might help: http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/publications/pwdpubs/wbass_diagrams.phtml

First one definitely sandie. Hard to see the other two but I am fairly sure they are sandies also. Here is a juvenile striper.....more pronounced stripe and a little longer wrt height. Get familiar with tooth patch.....but even then confusion can result.....esp between sandies and smaller hibbies. When in doubt and a fish that is undersized for a species you think it may be, release it.  AT - what was it about the bottom two that made you think it was significantly different from the first? I'm not saying you may not be right as pics are a bit hard to tell but was there something majorly different?

Top one is a nice sandy! Get about a dozen that size and your set for a fish fry. Agree with the rest on the bottom 2 little harder to see but if they were caught rapid fire, one right after the other id go with sanddies on all.

2 tooth patches = hybrid or striped  1 tooth patch = sand / white
