Those copper nose are pretty fish. Just found out the state of TN has finally decided to try stocking some. Will be interesting to see how it goes.

these are likely several generations , like 20 or so years worth of probably stocked back when coppernose hybridized up well with our native bluegill would be my best guess , I think that is what is causing such a huge diversity in the colorations of them , we have managed some out of that spot that are just purple as can be and yet others look just like a native fish , sure are eye ketchn fish no doubt about it
