It’s unusual for me to ever have anyone request to to catch yellow bass so you can imagine my surprise when today it happened. I’m told yellow bass make the best ceviche. Who’d a thunk it. Anyway, we caught yellow bass and crappie. All were caught on jigs and minnows in 28 to 30 ft.

Yellow bass, if large enough to make it worth cleaning, are great eating. Nice white flesh, great for frying.

I don't get out much. I believe that is the first yellow bass I have ever seen, much less a picture of it. Looks like a cross between a sand bass and a crappie. Are they common in Texas? I do not remember ever seen one in the Brazos River or in any lakes west of Mineral Wells. Okay i do not have many friends either, what is Ceviche? Tks in advance.
