Lord knows you're the foremost authority on bass books Clyde, thanks. Thier
presence in the Western part of both stateswould explain thier absense in
NJ.

Have Great Holidays My Friend, those patches you sent me yearsago are still
treasured parts of my collection.

Best Regards,
Warren (go-bass)

I'm suprised NJ isn't on that list Clyde, since surrounding PA & NY are &
the habitat there is awesome.

PA and NY were both States where the book listed both native and
introduced.
"The species is native to the upper Ohio River drainage in Western New
York,
western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Western Virginia and possibly a small part of
extreme Western Maryland." This book is really the only thing ever
published
on Black Bass world wide. Unfortunately it was published in 1974 and
there
have been many changes in the Bass world since then. It still is one of
my
favorite bass books of all time.
