Perch sounds closer than sun fish, but I'm no expert...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaterSalad Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Looks like what I call a Bluegill aka Sunfish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Socling Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I'd say its a little big for a bluegill, but its definately some type of sunfish. I've thought of perch as longer fish, almost like small bass - http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=htt...6lr%3D%26sa%3DG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
