You're right, I looked at the black color and thick head from a rear angle and jumped to the wrong ID.

The red ear tabs belong to a (several?) pumpkinseed. Longears are fairly rare in MA, largely displaced in rivers by largemouth bass and bluegills which are both exotics in New England. P-seeds have done well because they're so well-adapted to living in a glacially shaped environment like kettle ponds with no alkalinity to speak of because they sit in non-dissolving granitic glacial debris. P-seeds are usually feisty. They forage alone and don't really school as adults, so they don't need anything like social skills. Their preferred food items are snails and large insects which they can eat because they have strong pharyngeal jaws, which is very different from bluegills with a smaller mouth, relatively weak pharyngeal jaws and a preference for small food items like daphnia and worms.

Nice additional pics! I wasn't sure about the Chain Pickerel as we don't have any here in Wisconsin. Only Grass Pickerel.

The carp is a mirror carp and the bass is a largemouth. I meant I'd the sunfishes. The ones that have the maroon in them are bluegills? There's no green sunfish? The pumpkinseed with the red on his ear is just a plain ole pumpkinseed? Thanks guys
