Hey Dave that deepwater roach and that blue gill sure do look alike? Now we wouldn't be fudging on this contes now would we [shocked]

[davetclown]

lol, I am not eligable to win, I just like to enter for the fun of it.

there are close to 20 different species of blue gills in the state of michigan. I admit that I do not know them all my self, just the ones I catch. the roach is much darker in color, dark blue almost purple, the are more rounded in shaped than blue gills as well. If you go to one of my post with gills laying in a pan you will see half dozen different types. I dont bother giving any special notice to them unless they are exceptional.

I will try to catch a few more and get some close up shots of the fish so you can see the differences.
