A sac-a-lait/bass hybrid? Caught this behind my house this evening..i usually just catch a few perch and a few gar fish. I thought it was some type of bream at first but the mouth and color resemble a bass.
Also caught about 15 of these in my perch hole

Gotcha..i dont fish freshwater much, but i have a drainage ditch behind my house. It runs from a slip off the intracoastal to a pond in the neighbor hood. Ive chased some bass in it but there isnt very much water sometimes.

<<<<<<<< is a marine biologist.
They are right it is a goggle eye as we all it. But it's real name is a war mouth.

Everyone above is correct, Goggle-Eye, or Rock Bass, also heard 'em called warmouths. They have a large enough mouth that they will hit bass baits. Tough fighting buggers too!

They are fun to catch on ultra lite gear. They fight good for their size and are aggressive. I catch them all the time on bass gear.

I caught 3 of them on 7.5 inch worms last friday
