[20bstella]

[hertzer2000]

We call them warmouths or green sunfish

[20bstella]

its a rock bass you can tell by the blue streaks under its eyes

[hertzer2000]

@20bstella not a rock bass

[20bstella]

@hertzer2000 yes it is

[20bstella]

its a rock bass

[bradandthedawgs11]

just a regular old blue gill

[LOYADable]

i think it could be a warmouth or a warmouth/rockbass cross

[northernpike56]

looks like a talapia :-)

[grettagrids]

go to google images and type in green sunfish. looks just like yours.

[NateDoggcycle09]

It's a hybrid. of green eared sunfish, rock bass and a popular form of a hybrid bluegill. The body shape and color is like the rock bass the head is from of a green eared sun fish and the color at the end of the fins shows a hybrid (its what a uncle has in his pond)

[rkoorton1234]

rock bass

[skater123985]

It's a green sunfish/ I catch those all the time.

[Zzbman24zZ]

100% positive rock bass

[nicofish1000]

@Zzbman24zZ not rock bass. got no red eyes and it doesnt have the correct amound of rays on its ventral fin

[curledor]

@Zzbman24zZ no

[fishinDude0901]

That is not a blue gill. The mouth is way to big.to me it looks like you have the offspring of a rock bass and a blue gill. Trust me not a gill

[veornica118893]

bluegill



[awesomekidx]

bluegill

[mindysman1]

Looks almost a breed with a bass and a bream..which doesn't suprise me. I own a pond with both and in a small area. some do cross breed.

[ryeskees]

It is a green sunfish. The green stripe patterns on its cheeks give it away. We have many of them in missouri.

[JasonJForrest]

looks like a green sunfish to me...........good fighters they are

[rushthezeppelin]

green sunfish there is no doubt. Looks kinda like a gill but it has the light colored ring around its opercular flap (the fishes "ear") which really only greens and redear sunfish have. We can rule out redears though because they have much smaller mouths in relation to body size which (trust me I just caught 3 on their beds this morning). That basically leaves you with green sunfish which almost look like a bass if it wasn't for the ear.

[shamwowisamazing]

green sunfish. we get these guys all the time. nice fish!

[fishingforever1]

green sunfish for sure 10000% sure

[bassfishingallday]

[YoungAngler676]

That is a warmouth 100% sure i catch them all the time on jigs.

[FishingKing754]

Green sunfish/ blugill hybrid hands down.

[metalfish24]

[lumpernickel]

definetly a sunfish or bluegill .absolutly positive its not a bass of any kind

[jefftandjenc]

I has purpley barred scales

It is a member of the sunfish family called a Sacramento Perch

Their body is that of a sunfish not a perch

Native to SW states

[cg2012]

green sunfish for sure.  greenies have blue streaks on their gills.

[broken1965]

warmouth i believe its like a rock bass

[shenzielover]

or a blugill

[shenzielover]

a rockbass i guess cuz i caught 10 of those and my dad looked it up and it a rockbass

[soccer4life28]

it looks like a smallmouth bass honestley look at its head

[slicer119]

na man this is not a peacock bass, the peacock has a different back fin, just check a pic and it is different...now im 100% sure this is a rockbass, cause i caught one and it looks just the same

[DigitalExtremist]

This fish came from a body of water in south-western Utah.

[tubalufficus]

I would say it is mostly A green sunfish. Might have a little of another type of sunfish in it also. What state are you in? That might help with the ID.

[kevdung]

It's a Peacock Bass

[DigitalExtremist]

So far that is the consensus, and I think at this point I'm convinced its correct.

Thanks!

[slicer119]

no go to google and go to images and type in rockbass there is ur proof ur fish has the same details as the pic does, it has the black dot right at that spot

[centrarchid]

Green sunfish (Lepomis cyanellus)
