Northwest Fishing Reports

Recently I was on vacation in Florida, near the upper pan handle, Destin area. There were some ponds behind the house and of course I had to wet a line. I caught a handful of these panfish,,,, but I can't exactly be sure what it is.
Maybe crappie, sunfish, pumpkinseed??????? Anybody recognize it? I know it is another part of the country, but it looks like some of our panfish here too.

Look for Florida Mystery fish

looks to me like a warmouth or green sunfish

There are many species of sunfish. It is not a pumkinseed, Crappie, or bluegill. It has the mouth the size of a rock bass but is not that either. Curado could be right I don't know enough about the fish in florida.

i would say rock bass, Look up rock bass and compare.

my vote goes to warmouth

Thanks for the input guys, I have caught tons of rock bass, and it def. was not a rock bass.

Another Warmouth vote. They eat good too.
