Kind of a confusing article due to not using the scientific name. The nickname "white perch" in most states generally refers to Freshwater Drum. White Bass, the correct name, are often called "stripes." But every state is different. In my home state of Michigan, I never knew a crappie was a crappie until I moved south. Locals up there called them "calico bass."
Either way, if they
are talking about White Bass, well then I'm doing my share to help out. I eat the ones I catch. Rolled in Louisiana Cajun breading and deep fried ... they're great!
