Lake Wright Patnam is full of them--You can see them after the shad in huge schools. Bass fisherman I guess love to catch them as sport. I love the sport of catching fish to eat, but I will release ones that I consider too small.
Many Texans that I have seen do not catch the sand bass to eat. I use to see them get up into the 4-5 lb. range, but we use to snag them at the spillway years ago in the 1960,s.
