This past Saturday I got married in my front yard with a couple of close friends and family joining via webcam meeting. Although it wasn't what we had planned, we refused to change our wedding date because of the virus, we made do with what we had, and it went wonderfully. We were unable to get deposits back on flowers and a groom's cake that my now wife/then fiance ordered. She surprised me on Saturday with a cake representing my favorite fish! I knew immediately what it was supposed to be, and wanted to see if yall had guesses as well. So here are some photos. Also, check out the cake topper that she insisted we have haha!

Not sure what the fish is, but you clearly caught a keeper!
As your fellow, I can demand of you no more, and accept no less, than I allow to be demanded of myself

Congratulations! You are a very lucky man indeed.
The fish looks to be a warmouth.

That's great got to agree she's a keepe r. Could it be a warmouth, certainly a sunfish of some type. Blue cats on the topper? Sorry for the historical marker but at least it will help when memory starts being less reliable. Best wishes and God bless.

Its a Sandwich Cake!!! Sandwich certainly approves.
And for those that don't know, Uncle Willie was with me on that day when a little cracker was caught and came to my house and started growing into the mighty Sandwich.

Thanks folks! Lucky man indeed. And yes, it's a warmouth. Not bad from just a photo. I will also say it was quite delicious (the cake I mean). Most cakes I've ever had that have been sculpted sometimes have strange textures or tastes to the icing, but not this one. I would have also accepted the answer of tripletail, haha. Michael, I am glad Sandwich is still around and doing well!
