Sunfish Monsters

Maybe not the biggest, but look at that bulk. The first 4 pics are longear and the last is Bluegill??? In person the colors on both were intense. These are cell phone pics so they aren't that good and alot of the color is lost. The longear looked like a rainbow. I've never seen that range of color on a Sunfish. The yellow you see in the other fish was truly striking in person. I really should have thrown these guys in a fish tank.

Monsters!!! I catch the longear in the creek behind the house, awesomely beautiful. Have one in a tank right now, but doesn't have the adult coloration yet. Last one is a bluegill, nice one too.

funny thing is i was on a dock with fishing string tied to a post using shrimp as bait, i check the line after an hour of normal fishing and the beast was on there

pseedxbluegill. Thar is no way you can tell me that's a ear flap of a strait up pseed. I bet you catch 1 out of 20 that look like that.
