of popular game fish.
The striped bass belongs to the family of
Percichthyidae and its other members include
white bass and white perch. The striped bass
and white bass are also known as temperate
basses.
Another group of basses include largemouth
bass, smallmouth bass and spotted bass. They

whose other members include: bluegills,
pumpkinseed and rock bass. These basses are

instruct other fishermen on how to catch
bass.

novemaculeata) is a species of fish in the
family Percichthyidae that occurs in coastal
waterways along the east coast of Australia,
from east of Wilson's Promontory in Victoria
east and north along the eastern seaboard to
the rivers and creeks of the Bundaberg
