Fish from Satilla - What is it??

[Danbo]

This fish was caught in the Satilla this past Wednesday. It looks like some kind of hybrid with large mouth and high fins.

Warmouth?

Not a Warmouth. I sent it to DNR but have not heard back. When I stocked my pond two years ago I asked for Bluegill and Shell Crackers only but I have caught a few of these in my pond. It has got to be some kind of Hybrid the state put out there. Oh yea, I also stocked Tiger Bass in the pond and they are mean as heck.

Warmouth?

Let us know what the DNR says. I'll be interested in knowing. Andy-1Cove

DNR said it was a big Warmouth and as they get older the fins extend.........I am still out on this but...

Warmouth! I had a small pond, once, where I fed the native fish..mostly speckled cats and war mouth. They looked like this after a few months of dog food, had a mouth big as a bass! and tasted great, so did the specks.

Danbo, it looks like a cross between a war mouth perch and a red breast brimm/ just my opinion Jimmy
