I think it was caught last year and supposed to be the new world record.

This is a link to LA Times for a possible world record for a Red Ear Sunfish.

Shell Cracker, Pumpkin Seed, Red Ear, all the same fish. Not a bluegill. There are hybrid bluegills that get really huge but that is another genetic monster.  We can almost always find one pounders in MN, if you fish certain lakes and those fish are nice bluegills with big neck humps.
