How do rock bass protect themselves?
Sunfish,I assume you mean rock bass ,pumpkinseed,bluegill,ect,more than likely protect themselves,as a first measure,by hiding and getting out of the way of bigger fish fast.Second, it seems to me all sunfish have pretty sharp spines the stick out of their dorsal fins,and there always pointing back,away from the head.This would seem to me that bigger fish that try to chase the sunfish,to swallow it from behind,get stuck in the mouth with those sharp spines.I once caught a nice calico (aka rock bass) on a minnow jig,and I stuck myself pretty good on back fin while taking it off the hook,it drew blood!
