I grew up fishing the Duck River in Tennessee which has been called the most biologically diverse river in the country.  It has 151 species of fish.   I think I’ve caught 14 of them but I’m still working on it. ?

Striped Bass. It’s a sin to live in this state and not have caught one.

 

Every time I made plans for a trip for Striped Bass something came up and derailed me.

I lived 98% of my life in Maryland within spitting distance of the Chesapeake. Caught many white perch, blues, croakers, sea trout, flounder and other fish in the Bay and the Atlantic, but have never caught a striper (aka rockfish in MD). Kinda sad. 

 

Fished a lot of reservoirs in MD as well, and caught plenty of bluegills, pumpkinseeds, black and white crappie, yellow perch, channel cats and bullheads, some stocked rainbows, but never a pickerel, pike  or musky. Always wanted to catch a big pike.
