  @Mason_Cizek Yes, most notably the very large blue/black ear patch which is a trait of a Bluegills. Greens have a smaller patch, usually bordered by white and a ...more spot of red. It can vary though

  I agree. It's either the world record breaker for biggest mouth on a bluegill or its a hybrid haha. 99% sure

  Hmm the mouth looks larger than a regular bluegills, the fins on the side have that orangish color and I don't see any of the blue markings on the face that ...more greenies have. @wyldechylde77
