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

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?
