"Dick, I thought that used Christmas tree was for a Fish crib."
Do you love big bluegill?
Bluegill Redbreast hybrid?
I have a friend that recently visited and fished in Florida and he tells me about several "Brim" he caught that were reddish in color with black splotches on their sides. "Not your regular kind of Bluegill" is what he says. (His camera was broken by the way, so no pics) The locals said they are just Bluegill Brim... Is there a sub species or hybrid Bluegill in Northern Florida that is red with black marks on their sides?

I just did some research on red bellies and found the real name is "Longear Sunfish".
