What species?
UnsureUnsure Can anyone tell me what kind of fish this is. Caught it in very shallow water in Gallatin Tn. right off my dock with a crank swimming minnow. Looks Bass-like but has a kind of 'sucker' mouth. Also a pinkish purple color. I attached a picture below.

Anyone know the species?

That's it! Thank you so much. My 1st Black Drum. I didn't even know we had those out there in TN. Thanks again.
