Default Weekend Trip

Was supposed to go on a float-fish trip with a buddy this Saturday, but he was forced to back out because of a sick kid. I was set on going so I went and camped alone. Caught about 15 fish of different types, but these Goggle Eye were the only ones worth keeping. I have realized I am a pretty crappy fisherman, but it's worth gettin out of the city.

Don't have a boat yet, but I attached a picture of my yak I just got done riggin.

These Goggle Eye's look similar to what we call "Warmouth's" in north FL. Are they the same fish or are they different species?

We use Rock Bass and Goggle interchangeably here - they are the same fish... I think they are called Redeye Bass too.
