There were a bunch of these swimming in the shallows of a pond in Oregon. Maybe .75 inches. I thought it might be a bluegill cuz it has that dark spot but I’m not sure because it is a baby.

Maybe a western mosquitofish?
Not any kind of sunfish! Very cool!
That looks like a mosquito fish. Baby bluegills look just like a bluegill but shrunken. This is a baby bluegill I had somehow foul hooked through the brain when fishing in my creek.
