Well I didn't take but a second to hold him by the little jighead in the sunshine and snap a quick photo. Turned out pretty good and it's even in focus!

Michael... It's just the "Florida" subspecies of the Bluegill, known as a "Coppernose". Pretty common in the south. Several California lakes have planted them because they grow larger than the "Northern" BG. Beautiful fish, especially the males during spawning time like my fish.

interesting, never seen a gill with a copper head before, I wonder what caused this? Nice fish too!
