I'd second your assessment. It's long, it's lean, it's got that tell-tale blueish streak below the eye. I used to have a much harder time telling, but think that's because I really wasn't seeing green sunfish.
But side by side, they are pretty distinct.
Sure wouldn't mind finding some BIG sunfish, I've only come across 6 and unders mostly. Plentiful where I've found them, and I figger there MUST be some biggerer ones somewhere.
Glad you got out V-D, fun to be fishing again I'm sure. Used to catch frogs easy, until I WANTED to, then - never could. Drives my nuts hearing their spring mating chants, then walk up - silence! And nobody is hopping away. Haven't really tried that hard, my son is usually the frog-napper. Lots of garter snakes, that's for sure.
