Yes, it's little. And yes, I'm holding it wrong, I dropped it in the boat.
I don't see the black horizontal line that your typical Larry has. Think this is a smallmouth?

Small mouth because the jaw joint doesnt go past the eye...the article is correct.

Agreed that’s a smallie. The color is my first indicator (they don’t call em bronzebacks for nothing). The mouth is the next. Then I’d see if there are red eyes. Red eyes means rock bass.

Unfortunately I've heard this a few times lately. Cool weather is killing largemouth fishing here currently.
