I'll bet it didn't get ate. It is the pending world record. It will go straight to the taxidermist.

I wonder if that fish is harboring some of those brain eating amoeba that exist in Lake Havasu?

Definitely a redear sunfish that's been eating a diet of quagga mussels. They are known as shellcrakers for a reason.
Remember why, specifically, the Bill of Rights was written...remember its purpose. It was written to limit the power of government over the individual.
There is no believing a liar, even when he speaks the truth.

Not inspired or even inclined to argue here, but the "definitely" seems overstated. Have caught sunnies and blugill since the 1940s and later also took a bunch of fish from Havasu. That particular specimen not only lacks the "red" aspect but also does not show the vertical body marking pattern common to red ear and most sunfish. More mottled. Easy to see why some say "bluegill", but I would lean more toward "long ear" sunfish type. Whatever - great fish.

That’s a cute fish. Did it have to be shot before being brought into the boat? 🤣
