| Sunfish |
|
Although it has a larger mouth and more elongated body than the bluegill, the
green sunfish has the blue tab on the gill cover and is often confused with the
bluegill. Commonly referred to as perch, green sunfish are aggressive and easy
to catch. However, they can easily overpopulate and become stunted in small
waters. The Kansas record weighed 2 pounds, 6 ounces. The world record greenie
is listed at 2 pounds, 7 ounces. |

They are olive-brown or deep green along the back and upper sides, with silver-white bellies. There are a few irregular, large dark spots on the body. The young display scattered spots over both sides, the upper and lower jaws and on their ventral fins. The longnose is generally distinguished from other gars by its longer, more slender body, and especially by its longer, narrower snout. The snout is twice the length of the rest of the head. |
