After talking with you, I'm wondering just how many are there - or not.

Yes, this fish looks like a classic hybrid bluegill.

I'm going to agree with Jim Gronaw on this. It looks more like a GS X BG hybrid. If you catch another one, get a good pic of the pelvic and anal fins. If that's what you have in there, it's some good fishing!

John...your fish appears to be a green sunfish/bluegill hybrid rather than a true northern strain bluegill or a coppernose bluegill. Great fish, and congrats!

Now when you say "spinner" do you mean a bass type spinner bait, or a Mepps/Rooster Tail style in line?

It was a crawfish spinner..Bouyah Pond Magic..picked it up at Wally World.
