Pond Boss Forums FISH & FISHING Sunfish-Including Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass Sexing Redear Sunfish?

I had a big one pop off last night that I never got to look at, not sure how big it was but it fought a lot harder than the 9-3/4" RES pictured from last night. It could have been a SMB but it didn't fight like a SMB.

I do have a large year class of 6" RES but all of my RES have become difficult to catch lately which correlates to a very large GSH hatch in my pond this year.
