"We all decided last year that they were just White Perch."
'We' meaning the people who, 1) can't tell the difference between two very different species, and 2) have not actually seen them.
I've seen them. Many of them. Mutliple times. And I'm not 'trolling' or trying to start anything. Ask F&G. They exist. Don't see why people can't get this through their heads.
For what it's worth, here's a shot of rock bass taken on the Lady of the Lake wreck in Gilford.
