I went fishing in a new in a place where the river I live by collided into the other local river. I was still fishing in my river just farther away from home. There were sooo many nice green x pumpkinseed hybrids all in their breeding colors, they had the orangest fins I'd ever seen but I wasn't planning on taking one home since I already have two of those bosses in my tank. I did catch a nice pumpkinseed that was bigger than the ones I catch by my house so I put it in the bucket. Then we moved to a different spot since my friend wanted to catch bass. It was like his first cast and he reels in the biggest pikeminnow I've ever seen (out of like 10 lol) it was over a foot and I put it in the bucket too haha. There were more hybrids on their nests where we were fishing and they were beautiful but I wouldn't keep one. Then after a while I checked on the fish and the pikeminnow was upside down so I took him out and resuscitated it and it swam off it was a bummer but it was the for the best. Then we went back to where we started and my friend caught what he said was pumpkinseed so I said put it in the bucket and I'll check it out. I must've grabbed the wrong fish since I said "yup that's a pumpkinseed" then we agreed that we needed one more pseed then we'd leave since it was like 100 degrees. I caught one like 5 minutes later then we loaded up and went home. Once we got back to my house I put the fish in the tank (not my main tank the holding tank for new fish) and noticed we had 2 pseeds and one hybrid green x pseed. I was mad haha but overall it was a good day of fishing. 
The two sores on the fishes back in the bottom picture were the same thing I found on the pumpkinseed I caught this summer and my river, I took them out with tweezers and they should heal in the next week or 2 with no problem. I found 3 of those worms and 3 leaches on the new fish all of which were removed and killed .
