For me-

1. Garlic scented neon tail dip for lizards.

In dark water that neon tail can provide additional visibility. I don’t know how much scents help in general but I’m sure it better than a plastic scent.

2. Trail hook on buzz baits.

I learned this trick from 1rod1reel and it helps so much. Fishing top water in general, you get more hits than bites. The trail hook has heavily increased the odds of hooking in my experience.

Slides-

1. Southern Redbreast, Dollar Sunfish, and Orange-spotted Sunfish.

2. Longear, Gulf Longear, and Ozark Longear.

3. Red-spotted, Spotted, and Red-ear.

4. Bluegill, Copper-nose Bluegill, Green Sunfish, and greengill (Bluegill x Green Sunfish).

5. Flier Sunfish, Warmouth x Green Sunfish, and Warmouth x Bluegill.

For the prettiest I would say between the Redbreast, Ozark Longear, or Red-spotted. Red-spotted Sunfish are not too common but one of the most underrated in my opinion.

I still have not caught a Pumpkin Seed or most northern species.
