Probably the biggest pumpkinseed sunfish I've ever caught. I was up in Michigan doing some bluegill, bass and perch fishing and snagged what I thought was a pretty decent bass. It hit a little plastic worm called a "worm rival spin". Those things were pretty deadly and caught just about everything that swam in the lake. This one was in about 5 feet of clear water; measured just under 10".

Beautiful fish. Congratulations on the PB! Side Note: What was the outdoor temperature where you were fishing?

Beautiful fish. Congratulations on the PB! Side Note: What was the outdoor temperature where you were fishing? Didn't see this question until just now, banker. The highs were in the low to mid 80s for most of the week and a half I was there. That was late morning, probably about 80 degrees.
