Rock bass out of cold water is just as good as bluegill

Just so everyone knows, reason we kept the rock bass was the guy I had out liked to eat them. Says their similar to bluegill, I don’t keep them personally But there are a TON in the lake

Pike wont even eat rock bass 🤣

i have eaten them, they are good eating up north in the colder water

I always heard about the world famous rock bass fishery up there.

Rockies Rock! One of my faves.

Justin Perry rock bass sushi time! Rockie seviche' bud!

What’s the deal with those rock bass are they good eatin or what?
