Caught this a while back and it has some nice marking and colors on it. I know it's a sunfish, but can someone here tell which family or kind of sunfish this is? Thanks

looks like a pumkinseed to me
yep.. what tall, skinny and scaly said... punkinseed
That just happens to be a cross between a longeared green sunfish and a redear bream. No known name that i am aware of.
Looks like our River Brim or Red Bellie also Swift Water Brim
"Punkinseed" I think is the correct name ... but not known in these parts as that.

(would help to know where you are from)
It looks like a Lepomis auritus which is a Redbreast Bream.

Yup! Pumkinseed!
