I catch quite a few of these lately and I’d like to know what kind of Gill it is? They fight pretty for their size- ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/04/full-43805-92570-94a5cfed_5b15_4e3a_889c_f73d28357a94.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/04/full-43805-92571-0217ef41_4553_43b9_b323_21d1fbb4a117.jpeg)

Nice ones Steveiam.
First pic is a Bluegill/Green Hybrid.
2nd pic is a pure Greenie.
I see lots of these hybrids when pond fishing, they are normally big like your fish. BG/Green Hybrids grow fast (BG aggression with a much larger mouth), they have a tall body shape like a Bluegill, their coloration (especially the fins) and large mouth are like a Green. Have seen many caught by people targeting Bass.
Don't worry about the mule, just load the cart ![[Linked Image]](https://bulk-share.slickpic.com/album/share/3myzymTUjTUxL5/14007358.0/400/p/fullsizeoutput_5ff.jpg)

Have seen many caught by people targeting Bass. Thanks for the info, I have a creek that runs on the side of my place that is fed from overflow from a pond nearby. Some parts of the creek dry during dry months but there are spots that always seem to have water. I just had a pond dug and I’ve been catching these and throwing them in the new pond, they are a ton of fun to catch. Hybrid huh, I wouldn’t have thought that, good info. I do enjoy catching them for sure.
