William, from what watershed did you catch him? I have never caught a shoal bass, but that one has a unique coloration and doesn't look like any redeye I have seen before. But coloration seems to vary a lot, so I could only guess. It isn't hard to tell a red-eye from a spot, and there are 2 spots on my stringer posted above. Sometimes I have caught largemouth on the same trip, but I think the creek I last fished doesn't have any that far up it.

Nice fish!
