usmcfisherman, I am into panfish (and trout), so here is the ID on the fish you thought might be a Redear but weren't sure. It is definitely a Green Sunfish. Redears have more of a Bluegill shape, with a somewhat elongated and downturned mouth (for eating mollusks), and more pale colors, with a yellow belly and a red ear. They also grow much larger than Green Sunfish, larger even than Bluegills.

By the way, are those the Buckley Ponds? I have heard of them, and I think seen them from the road, but never fished there before.
