You don't need a DNA test for this of all fish.
This fish has a large mouth that extends to the center of it's eye (very few sunfish have this large of a mouth and no others have that mouth with the following characteristics).....a dark spot on it's soft dorsal and anal fin (notice this fish is larger/older than the other ID thread at this time). This fish also has a short, rounded pectoral fin and white bordering it's soft dorsal and anal fins.
"Don't know what kind of sunfish or bass (Centrachidae) it is? Here's an online key."
That is a sticky, right here on this sub-forum. Use it!
For what its worth Teleost is right, that fish is a green sunfish.
