Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations to have lines or not to have lines is the question?

My son & I caught several bass this past summer that were feeding on schooling shad in Tuckertown Lake one of several inpoundments on the Yadkin river in NC. The fish ranging from 2# to 4# were gray not green & did not have latteral lines. Otherwise looked like LMB. Never did find out what they were.
