This was one strange bluegill. It had all the markings of a bluegill.
Including the blue lobe at the end of it's gill. But it had the body
of a bass. Mouth and all. If it hadn't been about 4 inches long I
would have kept it so someone could ID it. I just can't keep or kill a
small fish. I always want to wait until it is big and catch it again.

Your fish was a small Rock Bass, that's a bream with an attitude, and a
mouth to match
