Yes. In the Northeast, USA, we call that a striped bass or simply a Striper. In the southern states, they call it a Rockfish. They survive in fresh, brackish and salt water. That ones an ocean fish. The others don't get that large. 40 inch, about 36 lbs. Nice haul ya got there yerself!!! Big fat slob of a fish!!! I caught 2 and released them both. I was in the mood for Lasagna.
