Larger mouth, yellow tipped fins and broken lines. second pic shows the bluegill. The coppernose Bluegill, is a florida strain of Bluegill (lepomis) which sports a copper band across it's nose in male specimens. The hybrid Bream is a cross between a male bluegill and a female green sunfish, result is a larger mouth, a chunkier body and may appear speckled or molted. third picture is of the hydrid
