[cool][blue][size 1]Most members of the sunfish family can be territorial and aggressive...especially during nesting time. [/size][/blue]
[#0000ff][size 1]Had some friends who rented a houseboat on Powell for a week during the summer one year. During a moonlight swim..."skinnydipping" in the shallows...members of the group received aggressive head butts and nips on protruding parts of their uncovered anatomy. The offenders were identified as green sunfish and bluegills. Good they weren't piranhas. Ouch. [/size][/#0000ff]
