Is this a redear sunfish? click on link

http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/ViewPhoto?u=4001548&a=30065624&p=72204643

looks like a redear to me but it's missing the red on the ear. Do female redear sunfish sometimes lack the red on the ears?

Bruce,

Do you think it is a native or hybrid? I do not see the typical light tinge on the bottom fins (anal or pecs) normally associated with hybrid.

I'm as positive as can be that this is a purebred bluegill.

But...a nice one for the little lady. Agree with Bruce, pure bred female bluegill.
