I like White Perch. In many bodies of water they seem to have out-populated the Yellow Perch.
They actually aren't perch, but very small bass. Taxonomists put them in the genus Morone, the same genus as Striped Bass.

Congrats on the PB Whitey! There a good time indeed!

Re: my pb white perch
 

strange why don't they just call them white bass. thanks for that tid bit of info,i did not know that they were actually in the bass family,so that's why they cross them with stripers to get hybrids aka" wipers" :cool:

Re: my pb white perch
 

I don't think they are the same species. white bass are different and get much bigger. I don't believe we have them in NJ.

Re: my pb white perch
 

Hybrid Striped Bass are a cross of Female Striped Bass and Male White Bass. Like Chris said, unfortunately no White Bass in NJ.

Re: my pb white perch
 

Right. White Bass are a whole different species that live in the midwest.

White Perch - Morone americana

White Bass - Morone chrysops

Striped Bass - Morone saxatilis

Hybrid Striped Bass - Morone chrysops x Morone saxatilis
