My wife’s cousin told me that he and his friend were fishing somewhere at the Labadie power plant and caught Wipers (hybrid White Bass / Striper). Could it be true? There are Stripers and Wipers on the Osage River and that river empties into the Missouri. Does anyone know for sure and if so how rare is it?

I have never even caught a White Bass on the Missouri, I am thinking it was Drum they caught.

Maybe ill show him a photo of a Drum and say hey look at this Stripper I caught. If he says no that is a Wiper, we will know.
