Help - what kind of fish is this in the pic?
I am a fishing newbie. Can anyone tell me what type of fish this is? I thought it was a bass, but in all the pics I see the bass all have a dorsal fin in middle of their back. This one is pretty far back toward tail.

Ah, thanks. I didn't think it was a largemouth based on the pics I saw onlyne. I . I guess there are different species.
Thanks a bunch

It's a largemouth. The front, spiny half of the dorsal fin is just folded down.

Too bad you didn't get one of the fish that got away from us at last years one fly...
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.
