Zero way to tell if its a smallie or a meanmouth without analyzing DNA. We have gone over this over and over and over...... Sadly, I came to the party late and didn't see any of those discussions. Having moved from Tennessee only 2 years ago I have seen plenty of the mean mouth hybrids. One thing they "usually" had was the coloring of the smallmouth with the vertical bars, but also had a LATERAL LINE. Does that fish in the pic have a faint lateral line or is it a reflection? Like everyone has said though ... nice fish either way.

Nice smallmouth!!!

I believe either way itโs a record! It looked like a smallie to me...could be wrong. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/11/full-19720-75383-fda0dde9_d30c_4464_b3bd_6940bc9f9e62.jpeg)

As big at the mouth is I do suspect that is a mixed breed fish. I would love to catch one that that. I may have to revisit RayBob.
