on the main
locations in each state that contain hybrid bass, as well as how to catch them. Hybrid bass are also called
Sunshine bass, Palmetto bass, wiper, whiper, Cherokee bass, and, by the author, Rocket bass because of their explosive
strike and ensuing battle. The book contains lots of excellent pictures, as well as a foreword, midword, and
afterword by three expert hybrid bass anglers. Every one of the 29 state Divisions of Fish and Game who stock
hybrid bass provided major assistance to the author.
