Fish ID Temperate Bass
There have not been any striper added to Falls lake since before Hurricane Fran in 1996. What few stripers that could be left would be well over 14"s by now. The lake is however over run with white perch and also has a healthy population of white bass and I often catch them over 2 pounds there. Side by side it is easy to tell as a small striper is much shorty from belly to back than a white bass of the same length.
