Choteau Bend = Tons of Sandbass

[jcbarlow]

Meant to post this earlier just haven't gotten around to it. Two weeks earlier a buddy of mine and I went to Choteau bend and tore the sandbass up. We cleaned 79 and threw back quite a few more, easily caught 100+ in about 5 hrs. Gonna go back soon and try to snag a spoonbill, I really love fishing there.

I'd love to have been there fishing with you, but I'd be hatin the cleaning.
Congrats on a nice mess of fish!

Geez, what's the daily limit on those?

Hey SoonerATC,

Don't know if you're being serious or a practical joker, but if you are serious look in the regs...you won't find a limit for White Bass (aka Sand Bass)

 

[SoonerATC]

I wasn't accusing you of violating the regs. It was more of a rhetorical question. I know I could have looked in the regs if I really wanted to know.

What a bunch of delicious bass, gosh!

Ha ya we were definitely wishing we threw a few more back when we got back home and had to clean all of them. I fried some up and they taste absolutely delicious. Still have a ton left over, might need to have a big fish fry.

The work-to-meat ratio on sand bass is a little high for me, but awesome! Where is this place you speak of?

Crappie have about the same amount of work-to-meat ratio in cleaning, but to me are worth it (the bigger ones) because they taste better than sand bass!

It is a river off of Ft. Gibson lake.
