Obviously, Pumkinseed (shellcracker) and Redear Sunfish are the same.

Don't even get me started on the longear/redbreast debacle.

And wtf is a Flier?

I have only seen one of those “flier” fish. It was caught sacaulait fishing south of Gibson. Really thought it was a perch/sac hybrid till we looked it up

There is a pumpkin seed that is not a chinquapin. I am just not sure about that choice of pic. Also, we have a very small sunfish that could be either long eared or pumpkin, but I just can't make the call. The pics I find show some large individuals. The ones I'm talking about never get even close to eating size.

Pumpkin seed.



Long eared,

That pic of a flyer doesn't do it justice.

The Cooper River has a good population, and their coloration is a really different - stark black and sliver/white, with those huge fins. We always find them around heavy vegetation.

Hell I caught a fish two years ago I swear was a small sacalait, but it definitely was a flier.
