identify this fish

Great catch. It takes a great fisherman to catch one that big

Yeah I'd say warmouth, we don't have many in SW AR but I have caught them and that's a small one, the bigger ones are fighters! For as many true goggle eyes that we have i'm surprised we don't have anymore warmouths and like a true redear I think if I remember right they are white meat fish unlike a greaser goggle eye. Sometimes bream fishing along the outer edge of the beds I'll pick up big sunfish that are white meat also.
