"Hi Bill:" wrote Fisherman's Landing Tackle manager Doug Kern recently, "Here's an image of the "Hybrid" bass. I have caught a couple of these before. I do not have any actual scientific data on them. I have just heard that they exist and if they do, this has to be what it is. It has the bars of a barred sand bass and a couple of checker squares from the calico."
