With the addition of warmouth yesterday, I've now caught all the Lepomis species in Wisconsin hook & line. Thought I'd share a photo of each!

What about the basses, crappies and rockbass? Also call the bluegill northern bluegill. Good effort and shots.

Sure, I can add those too. I need to add a disclaimer though; the only white crappie picture I can find is an old one from Illinois. I've caught a few in Wisconsin, but no pictures unfortunately.

I'm moving to Illinois in the next few weeks, so it will be my next state to work on. The southern part of the state has a few more to track down: flier, redear, redspotted, and bantam.

Well, I'm about 4 hours south of you but we've got some great fish here in Illinois too.
