Just saw this thread...The fish isn't a hybrid, Johnny - it's a substrain of bluegill native to Florida, the same way coppernose bluegill are a substrain native to Florida. The hand-painteds are limited mainly to the panhandle.

From the markings that is a cross between a South American cichlid called an oscar! These are released from tanks when people move. How do I know? I caught one last summer in my pond! My first exotic fish. This hybrid would be VERY VERY aggressive if I have my science right. Then again - who is a fan of hybrids?! : )
yes- that is a Direct Salute to Bruce's pure Gills - there is nothing like a pure bull bluegill!

Caught one with that white and orange color pattern a year or two ago. It was around 8" and I didn't have a camera. I'm glad someone got a picture of one, because I have yet to see another. Congrats!
