Title

A Pumpkinseed Sunfish

Description

This plate from Harris’s The Fishes of North America That Are Captured on Hook and Line (1898) features the Pumpkinseed Sunfish, a fish of personal significance to me. This species was one of the first fish I captured from a local pond and is largely responsible for my lifelong fascination with fish.
