Striped Bass - What Are They?

I know on this blog we talk a lot about small mouth and large mouth bass. But there is another species of bass in PA that people go crazy for. The striped bass.

Commonly known as "stripers," they are also known for their mature weight of 20-40lbs. They are believed to live up to 30 years. These fish can tolerate both salt and fresh water.
