Morone chrysops
25 white bass daily; 10-inch minimum.
Identify your catch
Silvery body with horizontal stripes; one tooth patch on the back of the tongue.
Habitat on Lake Bob Sandlin
Standing timber, docks, piers and vegetation provide cover.
Fishing approach
Use documented timber, vegetation and dock cover to plan fishing. TPWD’s guide does not provide a lake-specific bait ranking.
Fishing guidance describes documented approaches, not a promise of fish activity today.
No lake-specific advisory found in the checked DSHS active list. This does not establish that fish are safe to eat.
Harvest permission and eating restrictions are separate.
General species guide
A schooling species of lakes and rivers. Do not confuse it with yellow or hybrid striped bass.
