In La. when I was a kid, we caught, on rare occassions, something called a "chinquapin," pronounced "shink-uh-pin." They looked like a sac-a-lait with a big round belly. Crazy Loozianna people.

I couldn't find a link with a pic.

Sencond that. That is also the reason your catching alot of small ones.

Thin them out some and they can be a chalenge for 4 lb test line and a ultra light.

I grew up catching those. Then I grew up some more using them for limb line bait. Then I grew up some more and took my kids to catch them.

We called them rock bass and warmouth. But we - like many people - were wrong. That is a green sun fish.
