Thanks, I feel kinda dumb but never heard them called that before.

first off, pumkinseed bream have red ears too, and they are two different fish. pull up some photos on the internet. they get bigger faster than a regular bream, and if the place has snails, clams or mussels, in good quantity, catching a mess over a pound is no big deal. they pretty much stay close to the bottom too.
