i posted them on nanfa's forum and everyone said shadow bass so thats what i went with, and it it a little different from rock bass, but the biggest one i caught was about 4 in but that was just with a scoopnet lol, heard they get about a foot long
Nice fish, Tony. They are definitely shadow bass. Shadows and rocks are similar and closely related, but you don't have rock bass in your area. The darters are handsome too.
See if you can turn up some pirate perch- those are neat little fish and should be pretty easy to find down there.
