This sunfish has a hole through it, maybe made by a blue heron. There is a pond about 100 yards away that has bluegill, but there is absolutely no way for them to swim into my pond, even during heavy flooding. The dead fish is still laying there and is about 8 to 9 inches long. I am hoping a heron might have carried it over and was unable to swallow it. I did move plants in from a bond with bluegill, but only eggs could reasonably been with them (water lilies and emergent plants). I did not think that sunfish attached eggs to plants?
