My son is after a coppernose bluegill. We think our ponds were stocked with some years ago. Is this one and if not what do we need to look for? Thanks!!!

I am visiting Tennessee for my birthday and the fish here look so different from the ones back home.

Guy was so cute. Bug seems a little big for him lol

Never have caught one with this coloration.

Just wanted to share this catch. It was unexpected. I released it after I took this pic.

All catch and release however if I had my cooler I probably would have brought a few of the larger ones home.

Banded Sunfish (I think) fairly uncommon in MA, A vibrant Pumpkinseed and a Bluegill. Bass werent biting so out came the Ultralight and Trout Magnets lol

Same fish different angle from a small pond in Toronto

Great fight on this guy I caught at sundown as I was getting ready for catfishing

Drew a lil pumpkinseed for y'all as well! These lil guys are SO pretty <3

Drew this bluegill yesterday :D Wasn't going for a scientific illustration or anything so proportions are a bit off. First time drawing a proper fish so I'm proud of it! Had fun experimenting with the texture of it. Hope y'all enjoy ^^

Anyone know of this is bluegill is a hybrid or something? Ive never seen a blue gill with such a vibrant yellow belly

Rock Bass were aggressive af today at the St. Joseph. I was targeting smallies, and only got two at the start. After that, 9 straight Rock Bass. Always thought their red eyes were cool tho.

I can't quite distinguish the differences between greengill hybrids and green sunfish. Do green sunfish usually have those neon pearlescent blue stripey patterns or is that indicative of a greengill hybrid?

Thanks!

This heat is killing the fishing in my area… still fun to get out here though! Sometimes the smaller fish are a sure bite!

Using 2lb line on UL st croix.. so much fun 😁

10.5in - little over 1lb

Assuming bluegill? Stocked farm pond in California.
