Name this fish
 

Long time troller first time poster. I've seen people post pictures of this fish before but never had any interest in it since I've never caught one. Went to try and catch some bass today at a new spot I've had my eye on and managed this guy. Thought for sure i had a huge bass or a gar or maybe a cat but unlikely since i was throwing a spinner and to my surprise it was none. pic is kinda crappie but its the only one i have.

That's a goo, gaspergou. Freshwater drum

appreciate the tip for future reference. i already gave it away. i work with a guy who has pretty much nothing so i give a lot of fish to him. my freezer stays full anyway.
