Not to be contrary, but that looks more like a redbreast sunfish Lepomis auritus, rather than a longear sunfish Lepomis megalotis. Oddly enough the "ear" flap on the redbreast is longer than that on the longear.
Welcome to MFK. Thanks for the correction
and the classifications. I went by "artist's renderings" to identify it.
