<p>It's difficult to figure out which genes are in a strange colored sunfish. We can only guess with the combination of colors, patterns and shapes, like putting together a puzzle.</p>
<p>Doing a DNA test is costly and time consuming and how important is that to a person?</p>
<p>I'm going to just guess and invest in some cooking oil and seasoning.</p>

If someone asked me I'd say definitely a hybrid, but with pumpkinseed genes scattered around in their somewhere. Of course I've been known to be wrong and I'll be the first one to admit it. Sunfish don't exactly conform to the "Ten commandents." Especially the one about not coveting thy neighbor's wife.<br />

Hmmm . Even Poor Richard has a second thought now and then. This fish has coloration somewhat similar to Joe Tomelleri's Pumpkin Seed in "Fishes of the Central United States" (Tomelleri, as you all know, is the foremost fish illustrator in the world.) There is a difference in some orange spots. But sorting out the Sunfishes is like identifying warblers--ask the fish/bird god for a pamphlet.
