I have no clue. Sacaulait or stump knockers or something?

That thing in the OP looks half gou or something.

No way that thing and what I posted are the same species.

Of course what I call a chinquapin and what the book calls a chinquapin might not be the same thing.

If I caught that thing, I'd call it the world's biggest bream/sacaulait crossed thingy from hell.

And then I would have filleted it and ate it.

That looks like some kind of bream/ crappie cross. Damn sure ain't a shellcracker.

Looks like it is crossed with a striped bass, et alia.

I called hybrid first, on pg.1

Nice form holding the fish closer to the camera to skew perspective.

Dude appears to have world record hands also.

ETA: The old man is doing it too.

Hoister's elbows are still bent in the photo posted. Camera man did most of the skewing.
