DID YOU KNOW?
Striped bass, also called rockfish, serves as a strong candidate for fish cultivation. Our own Frank Lopez, Barry Nash, and Eric Herbst are collaborating on StriperHub, a project funded by NOAA. StriperHub already has helped bring roughly 2,700 pounds of cultivated striped bass to North Carolina markets.
