Can someone tell me what this is? I'm colorblind so I never even tried to learn the difference in all the fish. That's my story and I'm sticking to it

Light is just a tad off for good color to show up, but I'd lean toward BG but mouth looks a bit large to me. Just hard to tell for sure there.

Too elongated for BG IMO. I'm leaning more toward GSF, or possibly a BG/GSF cross.

I will try and get some better pictures. I was walking around the pond last night and this one jumped out. I was just shining the spot light around and once 1 jump I think they all jump.

At that size it’s tough to tell the difference in bg and gsf


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Green sunfish or possibly a hybrid, body shape is just not the same as the bluegill.

I think a hybrid with GSF also. It looks similar to YOY in a BOW I fish that produces both BG-GSF and RES-GSF hybrids. Are there any RES in this BOW where the fish is from?

Iv never heard of some of these names everyone on here says. I used to think all the panfish were perch.

RS - Don’t sweat it, just having a little fun with you. Around my neck of the woods, Freshwater drum are referred to as perch. When talk to locals about trying to raise Yellow Perch, I get a quizzical looks and nobody has any idea what I’m yapping about. Here is a pic of our river perch, I found on google.
