Micropterus Haiaka AKA The Choctaw Bass. Some of you may have caught it without realizing it.

looks just like the spotted bass. that's pretty cool. Can't wait to catch one! although i'd probably call it a spotted bass

Naw, if it was they would have given it a different common name, the McAllister Bass.

So they discovered a species of bass that is impossible to differentiate from a spotted bass without the help of genetic de-coding computers. How many locals do you think are going to claim they caught a "Choctaw bass". My pessimistic senses tell me somebody is creating a travel destination for fishermen, for the sake of (dare I say it?) money.
