Papa Dave has been after me for 2 years to get down on the Eno with him, so we did it today, my expectations were hi for a lot of crappie but I never expected, the results that we ended up with, we caught 64 crappie and about 15 white perch, and a few green carp, we kept 43 going from 10 inches to 13, thanks Dave for the trip, it was a blast. All fish were caught on jigs tite linning. Hope the other 25 boats we saw had as good of a day as we did.
Nice haul!

Papadave,the fish on the top is a white bass the bottom a white perch.Notice the black lines/stripes on the white bass,,none on the perch.The three in your picture,I can see the stripes on em so thats why I said you had white bass..Either way thats a nice haul of fish and once again thanks for sharing the report and pictures.We dont hardly have any white bass in my area anymore.
We still got a healthy population in a few areas

Or is it one of them fish that looks like a white perch lol
Attachment 181340Would you guys call this one a perch or a white bass? I think it looks like a white bass but it is listed as the NC state record for white perch caught in falls like. When you have them side by side they are usually easy to tell apart but I have seen more than a few that looked liked hybrid bass/perch
C T , That is puttin the whoopin on em. Nice lookin catch.
That one is easily a perch, the mouth gives it away. The way I tell on the water is a perch will do everything possible to stick you with something ... especially the spikes on the gill plates. A white bass just don't act that way.Quote:
