I took my Son down to Ladue Reservoir in Portage County Ohio yesterday for some fishing and we caught what I think are yellow Perch. aside from what you can see they also have some sharp points on their gill plates ( I got stuck a few times) I have them in quarantine in my 55G atm ones about 5" and the other 2 about 4" . As for the sunfish I cant tell if its a red ear or an orange spot.

I know the tip of his ear looks like its orange but its red. The light on the 55 and the camera flash throws the color off. When we caught him he had a very bright yellow belly and when I turned him in the sunlight he had what looked like orange spots on him but that was the only way I could see them.

So far so good with them eating, they gobbled up a few fatheads I had in their over night.
