We also caught 4 rockfish (stripers) 2 catfish and 1 yellow perch. We had a bald eagle which saw many today swoop down and catch a fish right by our boat. Gduck took some pics he's gonna post. Fish were caught in 12ft. of water on incoming tide on shad darts tipped with worm.

are white perch as delicious as yellow?
These fish look similar to our sandbass here in Oklahoma. Sandbass look to have a few more stripes, but built very similar. Do these fish have very sharp gill plates??
looks like you did perty good
No they don't have sharp gill plates they have sharp dorsal fins . They will live in fresh water or moderatly salty water , these fish were caught in the Nanticoke river which is part of the Chesapeake bay system. These white perch in this area go to pretty salty water of tangier sound and the chesapeake bay most of the year and make a spawning run up the rivers in spring , we caught these on there way up the river just down stream from the rt.50 bridge in vienna Md.
Owe yea Alotos there real good to eat we just had a mess of em for supper with some red beans and rice. We fry em in house autry seafood breader.
