What type of fish

[Sbarrett3122]

hat type of fish are these? I caught them while fishing in Pennsylvania. Also what’s wrong with the blue one’s eye?

Not sure on the species.
Maybe the hook set just under the eye socket.

kind of looks like a pumpkinseed sunfish to me. i always have a hard time telling what sunfish they are since there are like 50 different species of sunfish lol. if it is a bluegill for sure would you mind explaining how to tell it from other sunfish?

I believe the pictured Sunfish, is the very common "Green" variety. Blue gills have a steep forehead and a larger oval shape. The Pumpkinseed Sunfish in Oklahoma are on the smaller side and very colorful, sporting intense oranges and blues. Either way, fun to catch.
