I've fished for a lot of different species in a lot of different

best.
Which ones? Lots of different "stripers."
There's a "striper" here in the lakes of Illinois that some call white
bass. Caught a lot of them, but they don't bet much bigger than a
nice crappie.
Then I've heard of hybrids in the impoundments out west that are
supposed to be good fighters, and get pretty big.
Ocean stripers too. I'm confused now.

Hoo-eeee! Now that looks like fun.
And tells me they call them rockfish too.
Are they good eating?

They are great eating and not an easy to catch.

They, rockfish, like eating crabs thus their trek into the Chesapeake
Bay on their way north. The Chesapeake Bay is a good place for them to
fatten up for the Winter and Summer.

I'm jealous of you guys. When I get by the water and start catching
fish, I'll be asking for recipes.
