They taste great fresh. White bass and striper are not as good frozen. It’s not the same [censored] bass fishermen tell you that big bass aren’t that good. Big Black bass and small black bass are great after freezing.

Cut it he red out of white bass and they still aren’t as good after freezing but are perfectly acceptable fresh.

Freshly caught white bass are mighty tasty

I don't think they are as bad as what some people say. I soak mine in vinegar for 20 minutes or so before I fry them up. I think they taste good fresh but not as good after freezing them.

They have been damn good any way I’ve cooked them so far. I am very picky while cleaning my fish and I think that makes the biggest difference. I never soak fish with anything. Just put these in the freezer the other day

I cannot understand why anyone who likes fish does not like hybrid striper. Cut all the red meat out, shake in corn meal and drop in hot oil! I have not had anyone say it was not good. I keep my keeper fish on ice as soon as I boat them. Never let any fish die in water or sit dead in water. Hybrids are also good backed or grilled. Whites are good if cooked fresh. They don’t seem to freeze as well as hybrids or stripers in my experience.
