fishhead Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 (edited) Hit the water for a bit last evening and pulled this little butterball in from the margins. It doesn't have any barbels and was short for its depth, rather plump with a somewhat different dorsal fin. Is it a goldfish or hybrid cross or just a funky little common? I took 4 pics of it and released it without weighing it. My guess is near a pound. Steve PS-I just added a larger pic for clearer viewing. The fish's head also looks a bit smallish to me.
