I caught this in my pond. about 10" heavy for a fish that size. looks like a sunfish but has large mouth like a lmb. Pond was stocked 80 years ago with bluegill, sunfish, flathead catfish, some large schooling baitfish and probably more species I have yet to catch. There are bluegill hybrids but could this be a hybrid?

Looks like a good ol' green sunfish to me, just a biggish one.

really? my cusin keeps trying to convince me that it is a bass lol
 
Definitely not a bass. The blue spot on the "ear" gives it away. Very nice size sunfish.
 
i'm convinced... thanks guys
