When we are talking about bass and bgill fry 1/4" -3/4" long (aka larvae), then body shape is very similar for these two species. The bgill does not start to "widen out" or develop into the traditional bgill shape until it is about 1.1" to 1.2" long. Before then the body shape is almost identical to LMbass.
Once the fins are completely developed with any associated spines then the young fish is no longer a "fry" or larvae it is now called fingerling. Granted it is on the very small range of fingerling but it is still fingerling or YOY (young of the year).
