I know striper has only one P, but I figured I would get more views:biggrin
Striper or white? This is what I was calling white bass, but I think I am wrong. They are all back in the lake anyway.

Looks like a white bass to me. What lake?
BTW I was going to give you a hard time about the "stripper" thing then I realized that you lured me in... :Doh:
Dardanelle. I was calling them whites...I don't know.
Ain't fishing on the lake. Thought I would try to get a few bites here.
White
Just hold out a one dollar bill. Strippers will give themselves away every time.
The top fish looks like a striper. But it is hard to tell from that angle.
Striper, the lines aren't broken
The look different than the fish that came from Lake Martin last year that I would guess as whites or hybrids.
StrIper....say it with me, ster-EYE-per!!!
Man you gotta be carefull Catchen them strippers , it's to easy to go over your limit and the fine when caught is about half plus court costs ;-)
:Rofl Pic 1? Not ster-EHHHH-per.:biggrinQuote:

Stripers have more defined lines and are more round and torpedo shaped. Dardanelle has plenty of Stripers , White bass, and Yellow bass which can confuse some weedhoppas.:twocents
If only it was fish that confused me I would be OK.:biggrinQuote:

Just turn them all into eagle food and you won't have to identify them.
I caught several of both of them yesterday on Dardanelles and I called them by several names of which I can't say on here. Those little mothjdhcgtjfhdj can sure wrap up a spider rig in short order.
Atleast you found them good for something.:RoflQuote:

I've had one of those stripers on two different hooks twice! I guess he ate one got hooked and grabbed another one before he realized he was hooked. I'm not sure if they call them stripers because of the stripes or if striper is short for spider rig ripper!
that top one is definitely a striper. surprised that there is any doubt.

I was about to ask if you'd caught that stripper off a pole or just some old snag off the beaten path? Some folks call em white strippers too and yes they can be aggressive at times and really tear your junk up....old crappie fisherman once said you really gotta watch out for those white strippers my boy.
