It looks like the long ear sunfish here in Missouri. They don't get very big but are aggressive and will hit baits bigger than they are.

Looks like a pumpkinseed to me thats what we called them in Iowa. Down here their all just Bream. Darn good eating if you ask me. Try some pickled some time very good.

Would be a toss up for the name if it was on the end of my line..................

Either a pumpkinseed, green sunny or hybrid.
