I watched the episode of Dirty Jobs on Discovery channel about the striper farm and those fish looked a lot like juveneille stripers in the wild. I wouldn't base anything on whether the stripes were continuous or broken, either.

Lastly, Ocean Fresh is a pretty big company with a good reputation. I doubt they'd risk getting in trouble over some small striped bass.
as afar as i'm concerned, farm raised anything dosn't taste as good as wild. bass, salmon, mushrooms whatever. wild has more flavor.
