More often than not, when people claim to catch a warmouth, odds
are, they have a rock bass.
The warmouth (Lepomis gulosus) has three spines in the anal fin
where as the rock bass (Ambloplites rupestris) has six. The warmouth
also has dark bars flowing out from the eye, much like that of a
smallmouth bass.
There are anglers out there that specifically target rock bass at certain
times of the year. I am one of those people. During the spring run of
ole goggle eye, you can find them in large numbers moving up feeder
creeks from the main rivers. I specifically target the feeder streams of
the Iroquois River. Many of these streams have dams on them. This
halts the upstream migration of the rock bass, but more importantly,
they usually leave a deeper pool downstream.
