Green Sunfish/Warmouth Hybrid

[MinnowMagnet]

I caught this little guy dip netting about 1 month ago. He has caught in a lake with bluegill, green sunfish and warmouth. In the month i have had him he has dominated my tank of sunfish fry and has grown significantly. After looking at him and doing research i now belive that he is a green sunfish/warmouth hybrid.

Neat its amazing the naturally occuring hybrids.

That certainly does look like a hybrid, but its colors are a bit drab,which can be misleading, have any pics of it in the aquarium?

 

[MinnowMagnet]

no, he is small and fast and very hard to get a picture of in the tank

 

[Fishcrunch]

Either you have a greenie or a awesome hybrid, sounds like a win win to me.

 

[MinnowMagnet]

definatly not a green, i have one the same size as him and they are very different, i am 98% sure its a green/warmouth

i think its a green warmouth hybrid too. has the characteristics of a green and the color of a warmouth.

He certainly looks like a Warmouth. I don't see hybrid. Need pics with the fin rays sticking up too.
