I think you should request Maury Povich do a DNA test to determine paternity.

Three things strike me about that fish.

1. The white behind the eyeball in the first photo. That doesn't seem like a spotted bass trait.

2. The size and shape of the gill plate. Just doesn't look "spot" to me.

3. The darker colored scales on the belly. Spots do show that sometimes but it feels like a redeye trait as well.

Maybe mom was a spot and dad was a redeye? Maybe it's just a huge redeye. Did you weight it?
