    Largemouth, smallmouth, Guadalupe, Suwanee, rock, spotted, red eye, all of them belong to the Micropterus genera, stripped and white can 't be considered as true bass because they belong to the Morone genera.

    Well a largemouth bass, Smallmouth, Spot, red eye, rock, suwanee, are all members of the sunfish family not bass family.

    Raul,

    Sorry buddy, but I think you got things reversed. The striped bass, white bass and white perch are members of the temperate bass family and are the "true bass." These micropterus things which we call "black bass" are members of the sunfish family, along with bluegills, crappie, rock bass and others.
